More about: Sunglasses For Jaws

The London based instrumental duo Sunglasses For Jaws, comprising of Oscar Robertson and David Bardon, have teamed up with director David Gourlay to produce an atmospheric short film about a shambolic roadtrip into the harsh, rural landscape of the Highlands. 

Having started out making instrumentals from the cosy confines of their shed, the multi-instrumentalists have now taken things a step further. After releasing four studio albums that comprise eclectic sounds with “sleazy grooves”, the duo decided to embark on a project that would further their cinematic tendencies and interests; they wrote the short’s score after having edited the film, resulting in the mood of the music fitting the footage perfectly. Press play here:

About the video, Sunglasses For Jaws say” “It’s great working with Dave as a director, it’s a very loose, creative atmosphere, it was bloody cold up in Scotland, we got all the shots in a couple of days and had a proper laugh, only got stuck in the mud once or twice. Dave Gourlay approached us and said he had this idea of capturing our dynamic together, through the concept of a short video, which we then scored afterwards, so different to your usual music video. We took inspiration from surf music which wouldn’t usually get set alongside rural Scottish backdrop, but it seemed to work we believe.”
