HILLTOP HOODS are making their return to the world stage with their new single ‘Clark Griswold’. The song, featuring the soulful voice of emerging star Adrian Eagle is released today through HTH/UMA and is Hilltop Hoods first new material since the bands critically acclaimed 2016 album ‘Drinking From The Sun, Walking Under Stars Restrung’.
‘Clark Griswold’ is a song about becoming a father and taking account of our weaknesses as a result. On a basic level it’s about being a flawed person that’s trying to do better.’
Hilltop Hoods have also released the companion video for the single which was filmed by Richard Coburn on location in Ironbank SA.
‘As the video for ‘Clark Griswold’ is dropping on Friday the 13th we thought we’d better at least try to incorporate some horror movie elements, albeit pretty tame (we wanted it to be horrifically violent, but even more than that, we didn’t want YouTube pulling it.) As you watch the clip you see generation after generation of Dad’s go missing. The suspect? I’m going to go ahead and say that it’s probably the guy with the axe wearing the clown mask? (Spoiler)’
