Watch Japanese Breakfast’s self-directed video for new song ‘Posing In Bondage’

Japanese Breakfast

Japanese Breakfast has shared a brand new song – watch the video for ‘Posing In Bondage’ below.

The track is the second preview of Michelle Zauner’s upcoming album ‘Jubilee’, due out in June via Dead Oceans.

The follow-up to 2017’s ‘Soft Sounds From Another Planet’ was first previewed last month with lead single ‘Be Sweet’ and now a second teaser has been shared.

Of ‘Posing In Bondage’, which comes complete with a creepy video set in a supermarket and self-directed by Zauner, the singer said: “‘Posing in Bondage’ is a ballad about loneliness and longing, a song about two people who want so badly to connect but are never quite able to do so. No place felt lonelier than an empty grocery at 1 AM.

“The video is actually an epilogue to the one that will accompany our next single, here presented out of order.”

Watch the new video below.

Last month, Japanese Breakfast made her late-night TV debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in the run-up to the release of ‘Jubilee’.

As well as ‘Be Sweet’, Zauner and her band shared an online performance of her 2017 track ‘Jimmy Fallon Big!’. Originally written after a bandmate from her old band Little Big League told her he’d be leaving the band to join another that was going to make it “Jimmy Fallon big,” that same bandmate was present for the Fallon performance, performing the song alongside Zauner.
