It’s an OK Go video, OK? So OK, go. “Hungry Ghosts,” the quartet’s first album in four years, is out in October.
Grammy-winning director Trish Sie is at it again. The videographer/choreographer who masterminded OK Go’s “treadmill” video (for the song “Here It Goes Again” has taken on the Meg Myers song “Curbstomp” and done all kinds of fun stuff. So to speak. Produced by Jason Baum, filmed by Nic Sadler and from a concept by Elizabeth […]

The latest video concoction from OK Go is a change-of-pace from their live-action clips, but then again so is the song, the acoustic “Last Leaf.” Directed by the band Serious Business Design founders Nadeem Mazen and Ali Mohammad, the video was shot with a Samsung NX100 camera (the behind-the-scenes is pretty cool) and animated by […]
My touts for the weekend (UPDATED): ‣ We all know about Dawes.
