A Deli Premiere: Sean McVerry’s “Natalie” Video

It’s hard to take your eyes off Sean McVerry’s new video for the track “Natalie” (streaming below)—but he can’t take his eyes off you, either. The singer maintains steady, deliberate eye contact with the viewer throughout the entire video. He doesn’t break the fourth wall; it just doesn’t exist. Between constant camera movement, sweeping color overlays, glitch effects, and sets, this video ushers the viewer into a space of alternate reality, all to the tune of McVerry’s unique, soulful voice, and a top notch semi-electronic production vaguely reminiscent of the glorious days of Peter Gabriel’s ‘So.’ Watch the premiere of the video below, and don’t miss his Sofar Sounds performance on September 20th. – Lilly Milman
