“Brosnan’s new single ‘Octopus’ asks how does it feel down there at the bottom of the ocean? Whether for you that means lockdown or life in general. We started writing it about two years ago, but lockdown happened while we were planning the release and some of the lyrics felt weirdly relevant to the moment. The video was recorded in isolation with each of us filming in our houses, so it was really great fun trying to be creative with those limitations.” – Brosnan on ‘Octopus’
