LEISURE is not just a New Zealand-based five-member music band, but a force of creativity that has left a huge stamp on the industry. Their sound is a deep dive into the rich, swimming currents of funk and R&B, complemented by unequally distinct elements of pop, electronic and even psychedelic music, making their work a beautiful blend of fresh and nostalgic. The band came into the public eye with their eponymous album, 'LEISURE,' in 2016, and ever since, they've made a real name for themselves in the realm of artistic innovation, especially through their music videos.
When it comes to LEISURE's music videos, they have managed to evolve into a form of art that showcases the band's distinctive artistry and philosophy. For example, their 'Got It Bad' music video is set in the sunny realms of Auckland, reflecting the light and lively beats of the song, and uniquely captures the essence of an endless summer in a highly cinematic manner. Another music video of theirs, 'Nobody' catapulted into fame for its visually enchanting blend of retro-vintage aesthetics and contemporary boldness. Perhaps one of the most recognisable aspects of LEISURE's music videos is the pervasive use of high contrasts and vivid, almost surreal color palettes - a testament to their creative fearlessness.
Now here's a twist: despite LEISURE being renowned as industry game-changers, they initially started the band as a side project, thinking that it wouldn’t go beyond the walls of their studio! Little did they know, they were embarking on the creation of a new sound altogether, introducing an intriguing flavor of music to the industry and beyond.
