Dave Curl has unveiled a magnificent video for his surf-rock inspired single ‘Riders’. The video premiered on renowned tastemaker EARMILK and features Dave, among his surfing community getting ready to take on the waves at one of his favourite surfing spots in the world. 

The single, which was released on October 10th, sees Dave take a new direction with his folk-pop-rock sound to something a bit more lighthearted with a touch of whimsy. ‘Riders’ is all about Dave’s passion for surfing and the impact it’s had on his life. 

The music video is a visual feast, impeccably showcasing the shoreline and landscape of the Fuerteventura island, the second largest Canary Island. The video opens with a shot of Dave walking along the shore with his guitar strung around him, while the rest of the “riders” crew arrive in eager anticipation smiling from ear to ear. The crew are then seen donning their wetsuits, waxing their boards and gearing up to hit the waves. Interspersed with shots of the crew and Dave on the water having the time of their lives, are shots of Dave walking along the shoreline singing his heart out while playing guitar.

Dave Curl told us: “Inspired by 20 years of surfing in Fuerteventura, I set out to create a music video capturing the island’s desertlike beauty and the powerful connection with the ocean. Filming alongside the incredible Riders surf crew and lady surfers at the iconic lighthouse, I aimed to show the magic, struggle, and serenity that surfing here brings. With perfect waves and weather on our side, I hope this video captures the spirit of Fuerteventura and the joy of surfing.”

Based in Kent, Livvy Lauren is known for merging an array of influences including R&B, bass, house and drum and bass. Her previous single ‘Felt Love’ was featured on the popular dating show Love Island, while she’s also drawn comparisons to the likes of Doja Cat and Tate McRae. 

Maddox Jones was the recipient of the Songwriter of the Year award at the Northamptonshire Local Music Awards, and is also gearing up for his second album Waiting for the World to Turn, slated for release on 1 November. 

‘Another Sad Song’ sees the pair outdo themselves with striking vocal performances. The track addresses the fragile and unpredictable nature of life, and how one day things seem to be going well, and the next it feels like the ground is crumbling beneath your feet. Despite its overt somber and melancholic atmosphere, the track is beautifully heartwarming too as it addresses the power of human connection when times are tough. The accompanying music video sees Livvy and Maddox in a bright, sun-filled apartment singing vehemently side by side. The video is delightfully intimate and cozy, while showcasing a different side of both artists.
