The Shins’ “Simple Song” video is now streaming on YouTube/VEVO at http://youtu.be/RoLTPcD1S4Q. Directed by Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan a/k/a DANIELS, the clip puts a darkly brilliant narrative spin on the first single from the band’s forthcoming Port Of Morrow, which can be pre-ordered now at http://www.theshins.com/shop and is out March 20 on Aural Apothecary/Columbia.
Fans can see The Shins play the song straight on Saturday Night Live on March 10, when The Shins will return to 30 Rock for their second SNL appearance.
