premiered on The Fader here

directed by Liam Healy

Debut album "Jem" out now on Bella UnionFresh from performing live at Bristol's Simple Things and Iceland Airwaves festival, Manchester girl-boy duo Bernard & Edith have shared a deliciously dark new video for"Crocodile."The mystical clip is a trip to the bottom of the ocean via China and perfectly captures the mood of their twinkling yet sinister synth-pop song, as it tells the story of a young girl trying to enjoy life, whilst experiencing the unwanted attention of older men.

Directed by London based film maker Liam Healy, the video was partly shot on a beach in The Gower Peninsula, Wales. Nick "Bernard" Delap and Greta "Edith" Carroll explained the making of the video: "While shooting Crocodile, we we're filming in a rock lagoon by a Beach, when the Tide came in without anyone noticing. The water cut us off from any way of getting out of there so we had to Climb barefoot half naked up a 20ft cliff/rock face. It was terrifying. One slip and someone could have been in serious trouble. A music video of ours isn't a music video without a near death experience, that wasn't the first time something like that has happened."

The duo released their debut album of trippy, unconventional pop-noir earlier this year on Bella Union (home to Beach House, Ballet School and Fleet Foxes). “Jem”depicts a magical world of heart-break, trip hop blues and Japanese B movie soundtracks, drawing on influences ranging from Fever Ray to Portishead via Cocteau Twins, David Lynch and Kate Bush.
