When the video for Dazeases‘ “Baby” opens, you’re not sure what to expect.

When the video for Dazeases‘ “Baby” opens, you’re not sure what to expect. A drab, run down farm house is lit in neon hues and a quiet wind blows before a synth track and beat well up around you.

Abstract images of people pushed against windows, reflected shadows, and a candle-lit staircase all lead to the beautiful and haunting Dazeases (AKA London Perry)clad in a shimmering queen’s dress. She swaps between the silver and a darker, veiled black ensemble as she croons your through more neon lit rooms and corridors. The video, seen below, stands out for a number of reasons, and not just because of the talented musician who provided the soundtrack and the lead roll.
