We are very excited to announce our first ever official film clip for our single ‘SHE WOKE UP TO ME’ has now been released and you can view it in all it’s glory on our YouTube page:
http://www.youtube.com/mojorisingband
Directed by talented up & coming director/producer Rob Viscio in a warehouse in South Melbourne, we wanted to incorporate a science fiction theme in homage to the 80’s film ‘Weird Science’ where two guys try to build the ‘perfect’ woman using Frankenstein type methods. Pure 80’s gold!
