Music video

The music video was filmed in Cuba. Cellist Grace Chatto told Capital FM: "[Cuba's] an incredible country – unlike anywhere else we have ever been to. We wanted to capture the euphoric feeling of the music in sunshine and dancing. We made the video ourselves… with help from two Russian friends and some wonderful people we met out in Havana."[2]

The video was released onto YouTube on 2 April 2014 at a total length of four minutes and seventeen seconds.[3] The video was made by the group and features Sharna Bass, who provides vocals for the track. As of April 2018, the video has received more than 34 million views.
