Music video shot in Cavan will drop later today
Declan McKenna has familial links to Cavan.
A new music video for Declan McKenna's latest track, ‘Nothing Works’ is due out later today.
One of the music industry’s fastest rising stars was in Cavan recently to shoot the song which is from McKenna's third studio album, 'What Happened to the Beach?'.
Born north of London, and the youngest of six from an Irish background via Cavan and Cork, McKenna grew up playing GAA in Enfield before taking up guitar aged nine years.
McKenna, whose paternal grandmother is a native of the Breffni County, still has cousins living in the Lavey area.
The video for 'Nothing Works was filmed by the award winning Finn Keenan who, with cast and crew, commandeered the Imperial Nightclub as a backdrop.
“Finn had done treatment [on previous videos] before I really knew him and his ideas always stood out...So I always wanted to do something with him,” says McKenna, who lives in Brighton with Cavan native and former Strypes’ guitarist Josh McClory. “He’s a very, very creative guy.”
The video will be released at 5pm.
