Newfoundland folk duo Fortunate Ones have just unveiled a video for the title track off this year's Hold Fast LP.
The new clip pays homage to their home province by showing off some of the breathtaking scenery the east coast has to offer.
"At the end of August we piled a bunch of camera gear into our car and made our way to one of our favourite hiking trails in Newfoundland to shoot the official 'Hold Fast' video," the band tells Exclaim! "We had a grand time shooting in what felt like every type of weather one could experience in Newfoundland."
Watch the gorgeous new video at the bottom of the page (and check out Fortunate Ones' favourite places to hang out in St. John's over here).
The two-piece will make their way to the other side of the country later this month, starting in Victoria and touring their way back east throughout the fall. The run of dates will wrap up in St. John's on November 24. See the full upcoming itinerary below. Tickets are available here.
