The 1975’s label is asking fans to just submit the picture of themselves and their partner
The 1975 are burning the midnight oil, preparing their new album Notes On A Conditional Form, which is due out on February 21. As the best way to introduce a new record is through a single from it and a music video, the band has decided to delegate the main roles in the video to their fans.
The 1975’s label Dirty Hit has announced that the group is looking for couples to be in a music video for a yet-unknown single. The label posted a tweet asking fans to submit their name, address, age and a picture of themselves and their partner. That’s it. No other requirements. So those of you who can participate in the video shooting in London on January 18, go ahead and try your luck. You might become part of The 1975 history!
Here are the details on participation:
“We’re filming a new @the1975 video in London on 18th January. We’re looking for couples to be a part of the video, if you’d like to be involved please email your name, address, age and a photo of you and your other half to [email protected]”
If you get approved, what song will you be part of? What is its topic and message? We have no idea. Fans and media are all intrigued. Alternative Press suggests that asking for couples means the mood of the video may be romantic. Maybe. But then again, it’s The 1975, and these guys love walking off the beaten track, so we’ll see…
In other news from The 1975, the band has recently postponed their European tour dates from February to fall 2020. The rescheduled shows will take place in October. Why? The group simply needs more time to finish their upcoming album, Notes On A Conditional Form. We all know The 1975 are perfectionists when it comes to recording music, so they promise fans “the delay will make for the best shows possible”.
The UK dates will remain unchanged – fans will see the band live in February. The full list of confirmed upcoming tour dates is below. Get your tickets at this location. Pre-order the new album here. And stay tuned with us on AlteRock Facebook and AlteRock Twitter!
