Our friends at Wham City Comedy produced this killer music video for Baltimore favorites Wye Oak.  Enjoy!  The video was directed by Ben O’Brien. Who, rumor has it, is actually two children, Ben and Brien, standing on each other’s shoulders, wearing a trench coat and a big funny hat.

From the album Shriek, out April 29, 2014 on Merge Records (US/Canada) and April 28, 2014 on City Slang Records (UK/Europe).
