The Veils

Synopsis

Former schoolmates having babies were Finn Andrews' inspiration for this elegant, optimistic piece of chamber pop from the second Veils album Nux Vomica (named for the poison tree which produces strychnine and a homeopathic remedy). The delightfully wry video finds the band's performance in a pink-swathed set invaded by crawling babies and toddlers. While the song celebrates a single mother's right to raise her child, the band's interaction with the babies suggests they will be content to keep the next generation at arm's length for quite some time.
