Last month, Missouri singer-songwriter Angel Olsen’s single”Hi-Five” caught us off guard for its nuanced take on traditional country, adding alternative rock hues to spice up what could’ve been a formulaic sound. Today, she drops off the visuals for “Hi-Five” in support of her upcoming sophomore album Burn Your Fire For No Witness. Directed by Zia Anger, the video caters to Olsen’s vintage quality as we watch the singer transport herself to another era using a magnetic energy that forces you to keep all eyes on her for the entirety of the video. Olsen’s Burn Your Fire For No Witness is out February 18.
Watch the video for “Hi-Five” above. And for more from Olsen, watch her NPR Tiny Desk session below. She’ll also be heading out on an extensive tour through May, dates for which you can see below.
