The Sound of Arrows - Into the Clouds (Music video) from The Sound of Arrows on Vimeo.

The guys from The Sound of Arrows moved over to the UK sometime this year and have been focusing on their new release “Into The Clouds”. The result is something that’s got me moving like their old tune “Danger”. The awesome video above was directed by the band themselves. great visuals come hand in hand with this group.

Big up for atmospheric pop!
