After countless setbacks due to lockdowns and scheduling issues, South African’s Acid Magus finally got around to shooting a music video for the second single off their debut album “Wyrd Syster.” Watch the official video for “Red Dawn” through the YouTube player below:
“Red Dawn” closes out the Pretoria foursome’s debut effort and as with the rest of the album, is a metaphorical study of feminism. The band therefore opted to wear “dresses” for the video, tailored for the video by Nina Badenhorst.
The shoot took place over a weekend in October in an abandoned shooting range underneath guitarist Keenan’s in-laws’ house in Waterkloof Ridge, Pretoria. Heleen and Susan at Tiger & Lilly Productions conceptualized a red-lit live performance vibe and the rest, as they say, is history…
Crank this one up loud and all hail the “Red Dawn“
