Ahead of a massive tour throughout Europe and the US this Spring, Still Corners have shared the video to their seven-minute desert-noir odyssey, ‘Far Rider’.

With the sun at its peak a weary desert traveller picks their way across the soft sandy floor trying to forget a lost love or maybe a past best forgotten. Crystal clear guitar lines drift in and out as the bass weaves and snakes over a tight drum beat. Tessa Murray croons steady as a pulse, as the song winds like a caravan toward the orange horizon.

Tessa explains

We filmed this video during a 6000 mile trip to New Mexico.  We did it all on a handheld camera.  Most of the time we would drive way out to a spot and have to wait until the light was right, the golden hour etc.  One of the places we went to was White Sands and we spent ages sitting in a sand dune in the shade waiting for the light to change.  The sand is pure white gypsum so reflects the sun to such a degree it’s completely blinding.  The good thing is the sun takes a while to set so you have about 30 minutes of beautiful light.  We only had one problem, all the sand dunes look very similar, there’s really no landmarks so as it became dark we got completely lost on the way back to the car, it was a little scary but we made it.  We love how it turned out, it captures the vibe of the song perfectly.

‘Far Rider’ follows on from the release of their recent single ‘Heavy Days’, and highly-praised 2021 studio album ‘The Last Exit’, which received standout reviews in NME, DIY, Uncut, The Quietus, Mojo and many more
