Mandy, Indiana Share Video for New Song “Drag [Crashed]”
Mandy, Indiana have shared a new video for “Drag [Crashed],” directed by Ella Margolin. The visual features movement direction by Jacquelyn Tepper. The song appears on the Manchester, England, group’s forthcoming debut album, I’ve Seen a Way. The album is out May 19 via Fire Talk. Watch the new video below.
“‘Drag [Crashed]’ is a collection of things that were said to me or about me because I’m a woman,” Mandy, Indiana’s frontperson, Valentine Caulfield, said in a statement. “From middle-aged men saying I would ‘pop some fly buttons’ to my dad and that he would need a gun to fend off the boys when I was a literal toddler, to educators telling me my shoulders would ‘distract the boys’ and I therefore needed to cover myself, and romantic partners trying to control my body, ‘Drag’ is a personal exploration of what it means growing up a girl.”
