‘Sad-bop’ music video shot in the Galleries
Bristol duo Mumble Tide have chosen the Galleries as the location for their latest music video.
The track, Pea Soup, is taken from their forthcoming album Might As Well Play Another One which has been co-produced by Massive Attack’s Stew Jackson.
The song was inspired by the duo’s romantic breakup, after performing and releasing three EP’s while a couple, and was written on “a hot day hiding in my bedroom” scribbled down “in one big lumpy splurge” vocalist Gina Leonard says.

It’s a melancholy alt-pop record about ‘leaning into the darkness and hanging onto the things that make you happy’, with the video featuring Leonard in a glam yellow frock travelling aimlessly on the Galleries’ escalators and dancing on its rooftop car park.
The upcoming album, the pair say, combines this crystalline pop core with grungy undertones and experiments with a “striking collage of synths” created by bassist and producer Ryan Rogers.
The album is due for release on Bristol’s Breakfast Records – the label behind Getdown Services and Langkamer – on May 1. Mumble Tide play Ritual Union on March 29.
