Passenger - Let Her Go
This is a song from another artist in a similar genre to Ben Howard. Passenger was previously a band but after the band split the main singer continued with the name and is now a solo Folk Rock artist and so while the genre is slightly different, the solo artist aspect makes it very similar to Ben Howard whereas Mumford & Sons videos were different due to having a full band.
Key Points:
- One man and his guitar theme - Similar to Ben Howard
- Dark room suggesting sadness
- Artist well lit but still dark side of face for effect
- Still has an audience as is typical for this genre but much smaller audience - Suggests this can happen to anyone whether famous or not. More relatable
- Primarily focuses on artist but clips to clips of time with the girl to demonstrate story and feelings.
- Different colours of lighting, red suggests pain while blue sadness in this case.
- Back white light fades in and out but always very dim.
- Groups of white lights in the background, glimmers of hope and happiness surrounded by darkness, possibly representing stars in the sky suggesting there will be another.
