Jockstrap – the London-based duo of Georgia Ellery and Taylor Skye – are back with a new single. It’s called ‘Concrete Over Water’, and it arrives with an accompanying video directed by the band alongside Eddie Whelan. Watch and listen below.
“‘Concrete Over Water’ was written on a Summer’s night in 2019 in a flat in Farringdon which was above a pub, and above a train line,” Ellery explained in a press release. “The place hummed when the trains went under. The video was born out of the celestial themes in the song. Eddie and I created the characters (Moongirl, Voyager, Magma Boy, etc.) to explore the feelings of wonder, inspiration and the search for answers, to reflect what the song represents to me.”
Skye added: “I can’t quite remember producing ‘Concrete Over Water’. I was living in my auntie’s attic at the time and it was extremely hot. Georgia sent me the demo fully written, then I sent her the song fully produced. That was it.”
Back in November, Jockstrap shared ’50/50′, their first single since signing to Rough Tade Records. The duo released their Wicked City EP in 2020 via Warp.
