Leapling - “Crooked” (Official Video)

Leapling released their debut full-length, Vacant Page, at the beginning of February, and as it turns out, the band will be playing at the SXSW showcase that we’re throwing alongside their label, Exploding in Sound. In the video for the single “Crooked,” frontman Dan Arnes watches himself perform in an absurdist puppet show, only to have all of the events come true as soon as he leaves the theatre. The puppet show audience is made up of members of Ava Luna and Baked, and you can spot Exploding In Sound co-owner Dan Goldin as well. In addition to starring, Arnes is also credited as co-director alongside Liann Kaye.
