Music News - Thomas Oliver shares new music video "Shine Like The Sun"

Thomas Oliver shares new music video

03 March 2017 - 0 Comments

Following the announcement of his forthcoming studio album, Floating In The Darkness, today Thomas Oliver reveals a charming new music video for lead single, Shine Like The Sun.Floating In The Darkness is out 28th April 2017.

As the song unravels itself, Thomas himself becomes undone in a perfect juxtaposition of when darkness meets the light (a major theme throughout the impending album). Inspiration for the concept was taken from the very first two lines of the song: "take my body, take my mind". The video was directed by Seymour Pope, with post-production and animation by Squid Kelly, and photographical direction by Todd Bilton.

The song features a cast of accomplished musician friends, including Louis Baker on backing vocals/electric guitar, Sam Notman (drums), Johnny Lawrence (bass), Ed Zuccollo (Hammond organ, Rhodes), Adam Page (tenor/alto sax, clarinet, flute) and Ariel Bamborough (backing vocals).

Floating In The Darkness (featuring his Silver Scroll award-winning song If I Move To Mars) is a deep and raw, reflective body of work, largely self-produced, written and mixed by Thomas himself, with an additional soul-stirring collaboration with renowned producer and composer, Rhian Sheehan (Let It Be This One), input from Grammy Award-winning mix engineer, Trina Shoemaker, and mastering by Vlado Meller. As a result, he sees the songs on Floating In The Darkness as an intimate and honest reflection of himself - "a product of a whole lot of searching for the magic zone."
