The Band Explains: Corella - 'Come Around'
Corella chat to us about their emotive, visuals for powerful indie rock single ,‘Come Around’, which explores the themes of escapism, survival and finding freedom from being pigeon-holed.
Where was the video for 'Come Around' filmed?
It was filmed in Grimsby and parts of Manchester!
How does the video connect with the song?
The video represents a young boy running from a tough situation at home and finding happiness in an escape. It relates to the bigger picture painted by the song which is generally about escapism and having freedom from being put in any kind of ‘box’.
Can you tell us about the ideas/ themes/ imagery used?
We didn’t want to have another video of us playing, it needed a story to help portray the ideas behind the songs lyrics, so we came up with the idea of a young boy in a rough area. There’s nothing flashy or fancy about the video, it’s very raw and matches the sonics of the track.
What do you hope people take away from watching the video?
We hope people would watch the video and relate it to their own lives. How can we as individuals escape our own ‘boxes’ which we are so easily put in.
