The Virginmarys release new music video for ‘Where Are You Now?’
THE VIRGINMARYS have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Where Are You Now?, is the brand new single from the UK hard rock duo and follows on from their latest EP, Devil Keeps Coming, which was released last year.
The new song provides a glimpse into the band’s next studio album, the follow-up to 2018’s Northern Sun Sessions. More information about the new album will be unveiled in due course.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Ally Dickaty says, “Where Are You Now? is a song about abandonment, the realisation of being totally alone. Throughout my life I’ve had a belief hovering in the background that there was a presence or force watching over me. In 2020 I fell very unwell, I have never been so ill in my life and thought I was possibly on my way out. It’s a song of despair, the realisation of my own mortality and how close that can be.”

The new music video pays homage to John Hughes‘ 1987 classic Planes, Trains And Automobiles. Drummer Danny Dolan adds, “when I first met Ally at music college the love we both shared for this movie was the first thing we realised we had in common and could literally reel the script off by heart! Years on I realised similarities to the main two characters in relation to the journey me and Ally have been through being in a band together on tour was so strongly mirrored.
In the video Del and Neil are constantly travelling around from motel to motel all the while struggling with their luggage and belongings (in particular Del’s heavy ton chest!!!). Tensions build between the two throughout the movie and it’s a total love/hate relationship that forms. I think the concept totally mirrored what we and probably most bands go through especially in the current climate we find the music industry in. Some days you remember why you’re doing it, why you’re still in the game… other days you just simply. cannot stand the sight of each other!”
