Ziggy Alberts, the Australian singer-songwriter adds fuel to his New Love campaign fire, today premiering the official music video for his latest single, ‘New Love’ on YouTube.
Filmed amidst the picturesque backdrop of Goldstream Park Vancouver, Canada, the video explores the profound influence of relationships on personal growth and self-discovery. Through powerful storytelling and breathtaking visuals, the release underscores the importance of community and the power of human connection in tapping into one’s inner child and navigating life’s challenges.
At the heart of this cinematic creation are Alberts’ cousins, Shamira, Hilo, and Scosha. Their inclusion adds a deeply personal layer to the project, perfectly juxtaposing Alberts’ folk-inspired sound scapes with their unique urban dance styles.
Led by Brad Cauchy, a collaborator from Alberts’ 2023 REWIND North America tour and now friend, the filmmaking team has further contributed creative insight to seamlessly merge music and visual storytelling, crafting a narrative that resonates through authenticity and emotion.
Aided by the talent of his cousins and filmmaking team, Alberts has managed to add more depth to the song’s meaning, emphasising the significance of family, friendship, and universal bonds; inviting viewers to introspect on their own journey of self-discovery, the importance of relationships, and the invaluable role that loved ones play along the way.
