VIDEOS: WatchListenTell

Videos

Doesn’t music always sound better when it’s outside? Well, that certainly seems to be the case for WatchListenTell. This Youtube channel takes up-and-coming artists – and occasionally more seasoned ones too – and puts them in idyllic settings to perform stripped-back versions of their songs. This results in some seriously gorgeous videos. The fact that the sessions are often shot in the great outdoors means that the artists sometimes have to improvise for instruments – we’ve spotted a suitcase, a drinks can and a fence all being used. Although videos are not uploaded very often, they are definitely worth waiting for. Also, there are 11 secret tracks hidden in the annotations – see if you can find them! This channel showcases new talent in a way that is beautiful to look at as well as to listen to. Artists featured include Little Comets, Bombay Bicycle Club and Two Door Cinema Club. Below is our favourite – a simply stunning version of Overjoyed by Bastille.
