Chairlift's Caroline Polachek unveils new track "The Boy Who I'll See Again"
Chairlift's Caroline Polachek has shared "The Boy Who I'll See Again", a track that draws on themes of "light, immortality, beauty, and death."
A blurb accompanying the new video reads:
"Taking the classical Greek myth of Endymion as inspiration, singer songwriter Caroline Polachek of pop duo Chairlift transports us through a meditative choral lament as the moon goddess Selene in an original music collaboration for MAKE. The story tells of her infatuation with the handsome young shepherd and her request that Zeus make him forever beautiful. Zeus grants her wish, but with a tragic twist, putting him into eternal sleep.
"Known for her experimental solo performances as Ramona Lisa, she brings her highly personal and unquestionably inspired talent to this haunting, lyrical piece: an elegy to the immortalised youth, Endymion, with a special appearance by her newly wed husband, Ian Drennan. The video is directed by Adam McClelland."
Chairlift's new LP Moth is due out January 2016 on Columbia.
