Australian/German singer-songwriter Christa Vi will be releasing her latest EP Makeshift Happiness on 25 September, which puts a darker, more contemporary spin on both electropop, vintage disco, and R&B. Her brooding new video for the sultry title track only brings that mood out further. And no, she’s not the one miming the song in the video, but rather the bartender at the beginning. Either way, this track (and video) is a keeper.
“Excited to finally share my music video for my latest single ‘Makeshift Happiness’ and it’s my first effort at co-producing a video,” she tells PopMatters. “It’s been a labour of love with some talented collaborators including director Chris Turner and actors Celeste Wong and Christopher Goh. Enjoy!”
