Ariel Pink Offers “Jell-O” Video

ARIEL PINK SHARES “JELL-O” VIDEO & ANNOUNCES NEW UK, EUROPEAN & NORTH AMERICAN TOUR DATES 

VIDEO: “JELL-O” – YouTube  

Pop surrealist Ariel Pink has announced a new batch of tour dates this summer with his 7-piece band for a tour of the UK, Europe and North America. The live stint begins in May with appearances at Levitation (Austin Psych Fest) and Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona, and Pitchfork Fest in Chicago.

Having released his 17-track magnum opus pom pom late last year, the LA native follows his triptych of Grant Singer-directed videos (for ‘Put Your Number In My Phone’, ‘Picture Me Gone’ and ‘Dayzed Inn Daydreams’) with a new video for his demented kiddie tune “Jell-O.” Directed by Dan Kapelovitz, the footage is as visually dynamic as the song is catchy and is captured in arresting psychedelic hues. It’s a fitting tribute to its co-writer, the late Kim Fowley, to whom the video is dedicated.

Ariel Pink also makes an appearance on Alchemist and Oh No’s Welcome To Los Santos, going head-to-head with E-40 on the track ‘California’.
