Van She

Van She, an electropop band from Sydney, Australia, hit the music scene in 2005, made up of members Michael di Francesco, Nicholas Routledge, Matthew Van Schie and Tomek Archer. Coming together out of a common love for '80s music and culture, the band has managed to infuse their electric-pop style with elements of rock and punk, thereby creating a refreshing and unique sound that's truly their own. Their music gained traction worldwide, particularly within the electronic dance music scene, and their skills as DJ’s led them to remix tracks for popular artists like Daft Punk, The Presets, and Feist.

Their music video for "Kelly," directed by acclaimed director Kris Moyes, is a perfect blend of eccentricity and humour that encapsulates the spirit of Van She. Set in a vintage backdrop, the plot revolves around lost love, depicted through an ongoing tennis match. An interesting fact about this video is the outrageous use of bat wings, which stockpile in greater numbers as the game of tennis intensifies, adding a touch of bizarre realism to the video's charm. Another memorable video is “Jamaica”. It is a whimsical animation that takes viewers on a captivating journey through pirate-infested seas and a dreamy Jamaican landscape, and this video won the hearts of critics and fans alike for its engaging narrative and vibrant graphics. The distinctive style of Van She’s videos helped the band to make a significant mark in the music industry, contributing to the rise of outlandish and humorous imagery in music videos.
