Returning OK Button to the Scottish wilds, it taps into the lyrical quest for companionship amid the darkness of the everyday.
Amber comments: "'Verso' is our third music video written and directed by our good friend Tim Courtney, with Andrew O'Connor as director of photography. Filmed in the remote Scottish wilderness, it depicts the need for companionship in our darkest hours, and how we can't fight everything alone. It's beautifully shot and very poignant - made us all cry!"
Tim Courtney adds: “I wanted verso to be an exploration of grief and the effects of isolation whilst continuing themes of mental illness in our previous collaboration with the band. Sometimes we have a human tendency to shut ourselves off from others in times of need, including our loved ones.”
“It’s common for men to lock their feelings away, to show no weakness, and sometimes masculinity can be so toxic as to shoot women down for being hysterical. But at the end of the day, we’re all human and these emotions are part of our nature. We need that purest kind of love to help each other survive.”
