Welsh electronic musician Kelly Lee Owens released today a video of her latest track ‘Corner Of My Sky’ (ft. John Cale) starring Michael Sheen, in which he deals with a toaster that makes his bread disappear.
Michael spoke in a statement about the collaboration:
I’ve loved Kelly’s music for a while now, and the opportunity to be part of a Kelly-John Cale-magic toaster holy Welsh trinity was too good to miss!
Kelly on the music video:
Ler maisI knew I wanted a visual for ‘Color of My Sky’ and having been connected to Michael Sheen earlier in the year, I dared ask if he would like to be involved. Luckily he said yes! In Wales, we live by the sentiment that ‘if you don’t ask, you don’t get.’ And so a true Welsh collaboration in the form of John Cale, Michael and I was formed.
The idea for the video was changed (very) last minute by the Kasper, a Norwegian director who I have worked with on my last few videos including ‘Throwing Lines’ and ‘On‘ and it was weird, trippy and hilarious — the perfect combo! Michael’s performance alongside John’s vocals and the magic toaster portal is gold and something I’m very happy to have out in the world.
