Haim "Desert Days"

The Guitar Trio of the Moment Jam Out “Honey & I” at Joshua Tree 

The Haim sisters embark on a lost weekend  in Joshua Tree National Park, two hours from their hometown Los Angeles, in this Tabitha Denholm-directed video celebrating the release of much-anticipated debut record, Days Are Gone. Set against the area's dusty backdrops, Alana, Este and Danielle Haim pose in a pick-up truck driven by a local named Ken (who didn't care for speed limits), dip into abandoned hot tubs and bunk down to jam new album highlight “Honey & I” in a cinder-block house Denholm found on Air B&B. “It was incredible, an amazing bonding experience for everyone involved,” says bassist and elder sister Este. “And it was our first time staying in Joshua tree, which was pretty magical.” Haim has enjoyed a meteoric rise since releasing EP Forever in February 2012: the sister trio are currently in Europe and tour the US with Io Echo from Sunday, continuing a year that's seen them perform on the Glastonbury main stage with Primal Scream, befriend Pharrell, and make bass faces cool again. Yet the experience of filming today's short reminded the band of spending time with their parents back in their pre-fame days. “I think my dad spent the first 14 years of our lives with a camcorder attached to his hand,” says Este. “Every family vacation, every performance, every soccer game, he filmed it.”
