Not only is the latest music video from Australian indie string quartet Fourplay populated with captivating imagery, it also holds a powerful message.

The band’s new single, Wish, and its accompanying clip calls for urgent action against climate change, with the outfit channeling two decades of talent into an emotionally-charged indie rock string onslaught.

“We combined narrative and symbolic elements drawn from singer/songwriter Tim Hollo’s personal story of what inspired the song,” Heidi Lee Douglas (Defendant 5, Little Lamb, Devil Woman), the brains behind the new clip, said.

“His daughter’s anxieties about growing up in a world affected by climate change are embodied powerfully by actor/dancer Marigold Pazar

“By the end of the song her character has found the courage and strength to lead us into the future.”

Fourplay String Quartet take Wish around the country this month on an East Coast tour; check out theGuide for all the details.
