The Dirty Nil release new music video for ‘Bye Bye Big Bear’

THE DIRTY NIL have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Bye Bye Big Bear, is the brand new single from the Canadian alternative trio and marks their first new music since 2021’s Fuck Art.

Speaking about the new song, the band says, “for five years we lived together at a house in downtown Hamilton. For five years we were sustained by the Big Bear convenience store, located directly across the street. There we were nurtured with sparkling water, protein bars and cigarettes. There we witnessed an untold number of human dramas play out in the parking lot, ranging from the hilarious to the hopelessly sad. For five years it was our clubhouse, our pirate ship, our prison. So we say farewell, thank you for everything: Bye Bye Big Bear.”

“We were there through our 20s and having the best time,” shares guitarist Luke Bentham, namedropping some of the transient roommates who spent a few months under the roof with them – members of fellow revered Canadian rock outfits including THE GLORIOUS SONS, ATTACK IN BLACK, CAREER SUICIDE, SEAWAY, and SINGLE MOTHERS. “It was so conducive to creativity and collaboration. When we turned 30, though, it felt like time to spring from the nest, so we all put our separate plans into motion, and then I immediately started to miss everybody.”
