WALK THE MOON has debuted a new music video for their single, "Work This Body". Premiered Friday, February 12 on Entertainment Weekly, the clip was directed by the band along with Isaac Rentz.
It centers on a boy who gets bullied at school and then wins a talent show with the help of his idols, the band's four members. The group appears in colorful outfits against retro laser background in between scenes of several kids dancing, singing, performing magic tricks and later engaging in a food fight started by the bullied boy.
" 'Work This Body' is a song about getting my ass in shape and standing up to my fears," frontman Nick Petricca tells EW. "The video portrays a school kid much braver than I was who starts a revolution with a lunchbox. It's a little nudge to the skeptic that there really are superheroes among us."
The song is included on WALK THE MOON's latest album, "Talking Is Hard", which also features the hit "Shut Up and Dance". The band is scheduled to perform at this Saturday, February 13's NBA All-Star slam dunk contest and will later embark on a tour that starts next week with some European dates.
