Dune Rats release new music video for ‘UP’

DUNE RATS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track UP, is the brand new single from the Australian alternative trio and gives a glimpse into their forthcoming as-of-yet unannounced fourth studio album, the follow-up to 2020’s Hurry Up And Wait.

“UP was written on the far South Coast of Australia in a small town called Eden,” the band says about the new single. “It was bloody freezing at the time, so it felt necessary to write a summer tune. We ended up making this feel-good banger that was way different from anything we’d written before. We stumbled across the song while having a good time fucking around and cracking each other up. At first, we were reluctant to show anyone because of how different it sounded but eventually thought fuck it and embraced the tuneski!”

“It took a couple of weeks to learn the UP dance in between every rehearsal, sound check and show during our Duniespalooza shows in Brisbane,” the band adds about the choreography featured in the new music video. “Then we went straight into a three day shoot with a nasty four-nights-in-a-row hangover…. Was intense, but more than worth it!”

With a large cast of Brisbane extras and filmed at iconic locations such as the Ithaca Fire Station and Coorparoo Bowls Club, the UP video also features a special appearance by Matt & Dom from THE INSPIRED UNEMPLOYED. “When thinking who else we could rope in for the fun time ahead, getting BUGS, BIG TWISTY & THE FUNK NASTY plus all our mates from Brisbane was a no brainer. Getting to shoot this clip with them all was insanely fun.”
