After a triumphant showing in this year’s triple j Hottest 100 and a stint touring the country nationally this summer with Laneway Festival; SKEGSS are hitting the road once more in support of their debut ARIA #2 album ‘My Own Mess’ and its new single and video ‘Road Trip’.
With previous songs ‘Up In The Clouds’ (#11), ‘Smogged Out’ (#71), ‘Stop’ (#173) and album title track ‘My Own Mess’ (#193) all appearing in the top 200 tracks voted by triple j listeners; it’s time for a fifth serving with the next track sung by Toby Cregan; offering some colourful reflection about a different kind of trip.

Directed by Kai Neville on rustic old gear, the official music video for ‘Road Trip’ is a fitting visual accompaniment to one of ‘My Own Mess’ more subdued moments.
.
“I jumped in the van with good pals Skegss for two days while they were on tour. In theme with Toby’s lyrics I felt 16mm would fit the track. Shot mostly handheld on my Bolex h16. It’s an older camera, you can barely see through the viewfinder. It’s small and kinda looks cool so was perfect to run around back stage and throw in front of torched fans. Not a very invasive camera rig so helps keep a candid shooting approach. Love how the 16mm rushes look and the final cut came out.” – Kai Neville
Of the upcoming tour, the band offer:
.
“We are really excited to come and play our dream venues around Australia. Dropping our debut album last year ‘My Own Mess’ everything has been crazy. We are taking our friends Aaron Gocs, Totty and Mini Skirt on the road. See yas there!”
