Experimental Canadian troubadour Patrick Watson just released his latest LP Love Songs for Robots, and he's followed it up with a new video for "Hearts."
The clip is comprised of live footage from a recent secret album release show in his hometown of Montreal, showcasing Watson and his band's impressive stage setup and delivery. Watson's excitement to share the new material is apparent from his bustling energy and restless, jerky sort-of dance moves.
