After returning to the spotlight late last year with the vibrant, infectious new single ‘With Or Without,’ Tired Lion  drop the accompanying video. 

Directed by The Creases’ Joe Agius, the dizzying video captures Tired Lion’s irrepressible frontwoman Sophie Hopes singing to camera through a fish-eye lens as she whips around venues and bars in her new hometown of Brisbane. 

As their first single following the release of their debut album (2016’s triple j Feature Record Dumb Days) and the 2018 departure of founding member and guitarist, Matt Tanner, ‘With Or Without’ marked a new era for the band.

Laden with hooks, addictively crunchy guitar lines and sweeping, atmospheric production care of producer Luke Boerdam (of Violent Soho fame), the song stands as one of the most confessional of Hopes’ songwriting career; candidly shedding light on the turmoil she experienced upon the departure of her friend, confidant and collaborator.
