The final song on their recently released \u2018Roi De L\u2019Herbe\u2019 EP on Venn Records, new single \u2018My Girl\u2019 powers by in less than three-minutes in a flurry of buzzsaw guitars, charging drums and rousing vocals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With an accompanying video by award-winning comedy writer and director <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm5723499\/\">Christopher Macken<\/a>, guitarist and vocalist Jamie Munro met the film maker after he\u2019d randomly heard Aerial Salad via a college radio station. They quickly struck up a friendship through mutual respect for each other\u2019s work, first working together on the video for the \u2018MDRN LVN\u2019 single from last years \u2018R.O.I.\u2019 album, shot in just three hours around the streets of Los Angeles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Aerial Salad - My Girl - Official Video\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/O9md0aEtlTs?start=2&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After Macken heard the \u2018My Girl\u2019 song, he decided to share it with some of his friends Zackass (aka Zack Holmes) from the \u2018Jackass\u2019 series and American actress and singer Harley Quinn Smith (from Cruel Summer, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, Yoga Hosers and the indie band Cinnamon, who released their first single \u2018Star\u2019 this year). They both loved the song so much they wanted to jump in and be a part of the idea Christopher was having for the video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRealizing our creative and humour sensibilities were super aligned, we\u2019ve been dying to create together but find the distance to be quite the obstacle\u201d explains Macken. \u201cThat\u2019s when I pitched the band the idea of \u2018My Girl\u2019. Is it possible to do a music video remotely and I shoot the rest with my funny actor friends? The band seemed stoked on the idea, and I just ran with it, producing the video within a week of the initial brainstorm. I thought \u2018everyone wants to be cool and British\u2026 since the dawn of time\u2019, can we do a funny video where a guy sees Aerial Salad perform on TV and completely changes his life to be cool like his new favourite band. And adding in the love story to really define the song. And boom we have this adorable, goofy little video. I hope it makes people smile.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor me, this video is symbolic of everything that&#8217;s positive in the music industry,\u201d continues Jamie. \u201cThere&#8217;s so much negativity but here we have a reasonably small punk band from England that have got Hollywood actors and directors working with them out of love of the project, not out of getting a Paycheck, a real \u2018you never know who&#8217;s listening or what can happen\u2019 this video is a rallying cry for people following their creative pursuits. you simply never know what can happen, or the friends you can make.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u2018Roi de l\u2019herbe\u2019 EP is out now via Venn Records <a href=\"https:\/\/found.ee\/roidelherbe\">HERE<\/a>:<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aerial Salad bounce back with new single \u2018My Girl\u2019 New 5-track EP \u2018Roi de l\u2019herbe\u2019 out now Venn Records HERE Manchester power-punk trio Aerial Salad are back once again to plough another melodious monster deep within our crania.
