Well, this song and music video may be one of the best things I’ve ever seen. It makes me want to start a video music award show and only invite Kirin J. Callinan and Connan Mockasin. “The Teacher” by the friends, tour partners and overall dynamic duo is out now.
Callinan described how he and Mockasin met the music video director Kritofski,
“After one o’ the Tame Impala shows at Hollywood Forever & instantly we got along. After a big night of shadow puppetry we set about making a movie ~ shootin’ the lot in two days straight.Importantly, I wanna acknowledge those behind the scenes who were essential to the making o’ the clip, especially with such limited resources, startin’ with champion whistler Molly Lewis & producer extraordinaire Jason Trucco, whom together & apart found the locations, the talent, the pizza & the patience. Also, I gutta thank Effi Shoua for the space & the time, his kids & his lights, as well as Kii Arens for his camera, Hiromi Oshima for the kiss, Ethan Silverman for the kicks, Marquis & Wolfy for being up for it, The Oaks School Hollywood, Nuspace on Beverly, and the Sexy Sax Man Sergio Flores, who leant us his sexy sax.”
This month, Kirin J. Callinan will join the “David Lynch: in Dreams Revisited” tour alongside members of Savages, Bad Seeds, Stealing Sheep and more! Check out dates below:
