The sensational indie-rock band The Ghost Club has released the official music video for the euphoric single “If I Fell (Don’t Wait Here For Me).” As one of the first music videos ever shot on a limited-released, newly-launched Kodak Super 8 camera, director Ben Turok was able to create a timeless yet modern feeling that perfectly mirrors the song.

“If I Fell (Don’t Wait Here For Me),” which offers up a tender outpouring of restlessness and doubt, ornamenting that introspection with atmospheric textures, dreamy guitar tones, and luminous piano work, came out earlier this month alongside the band’s announcement of their forthcoming new album, King Whatever (Last Gang Records). An ecstatic mix of angular aughts indie rock with youthful punk energy and spirited sax solos that surfs on a timeless new wave, the band’s label debut album is set to release on April 26 via Last Gang Records, pre-order King Whatever HERE.  

“‘If I Fell’ came from a period when a lot of bad stuff was happening in my life, including breaking my hand and not being able to play music for a while,” says bandleader Domenic Dunegan. “I was also trying to come to terms with being alone after a breakup, and I realized that part of pulling yourself out of a bad spot is accepting the fact that you need to be self-reliant and do it on your own.”

Full of cathartic anthems, King Whatever offers raw, incisive songwriting, sharp-tongued commentary, and insightful self-reflection on subjects including worn-out expectations of masculinity. Throughout the Palmquist-produced album, The Ghost Club brings truth-telling to a thrilling collision of heartland rock, garage punk, and new wave, etching each track with unexpected musical turns.

A singular group, The Ghost Club makes songs of persistence against the odds, which the band has often personally overcome–notably in the form of broken hands, but never in the form of broken dreams. The band’s label debut serves as a crucial lesson in shedding expectations and fully trusting your intuition.
