Anna of the Northshares the official video for her latest single “Swirl”, featuring stop motion animation created by Anna herself, streaming now on her official YouTube channel.

Commenting on the video, Anna shares, “I wanted to extend the crazy life world with this music video. I didn’t know how, but eventually, I figured it out. Claymation. It took forever, but it was really fun seeing the end result. Maybe one day I’ll become a stop-motion filmmaker. Swirl is a song all about having too much time on your hands by yourself. This music video definitely had me thinking about things other than how lonely life can be.”

Last month, Anna announced an expanded, deluxe edition of her acclaimed third studio album Crazy Life – arriving April 28th via Elektra Records – and shared dreamy new single “Swirl.” Hailed as a “song you need to know” by Rolling Stone, “Swirl” is the first of three new tracks to come from Anna’s Crazy Life Deluxe album. Co-written by Anna, Victor Rådström (NEIKED) and Marcus White, “Swirl” gives listeners buoyant pop production as Anna sings about falling into old patterns and becoming comfortable with dissatisfaction.

Released November 4, 2022, Crazy Life is Anna’s chronicle of life in all its insanity, glory, and bliss. The album includes fan-favorite tracks such as “I Do You,” “Nobody,” “Bird Sing,” “Living Life Right,” and “Dandelion,” all joined by official music videos and visualizers streaming now on Anna’s official YouTube channel HERE. Garnering praise from Billboard, Rolling Stone, PAPER, Uproxx and more, Crazy Life transcends the Norwegian artist’s ability to find comfort in vulnerability by inviting listeners into her world and illustrating exactly how it’s done. Uncovering iridescence in mundanity, Anna of the North offers confessional and relatable lyrics with clarity, confidence, and a splash of shimmer.

“The album is about everything, nothing, and all in between,” Anna explained. “It’s about those small things we don’t necessarily talk about—like the days where you lie on the couch because you can’t get out of the house. Many of the songs are about being stuck and how it’s hard to get out of your own patterns.”

Giving these themes concrete form as a ‘house,’ Anna teamed up with Australian designer Montana Kitching for Crazy Life’s album and single art. The artwork for each of the previously released singles corresponds to a place in the ‘house.’ As “Dandelion” introduced viewers to Anna’s living room, complete with her fluffy dog and thriving plants, “Bird Sing” captured the image directly outside Anna’s bedroom window, giving you a 360- look at Anna’s dwelling. “Nobody” provides a stark overview of Anna’s bedroom with the messy bed and leftover cereal that we’ve all been privy to at some point. You can explore the full house HERE.

Next week, Anna will embark on a North American headline tour kicking off in DC on Thursday, March 16th making stops in NY, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles and more! For up-to-date ticketing information please visit www.annaofthenorth.com/
