Le Butcherettes shared the music video for “DON’T BLEED YOU’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOREST,” a track from their latest EP DON’T BLEED. The video was filmed in downtown El Paso, TX. The video comes with news of tour dates with Chicano Batman who will be touring their new album that comes out in May.
The video was directed by Violeta Félix, who also produced the band’s EP.
Front-woman and lead singer Teri Gender Bender commented on the track, “the song is very heavy. We wanted to make a music video that would juxtapose the heaviness with a feeling of light within darkness. Sometimes it takes a lot of mental energy to leave ‘the dark alley’ but once you do, the rest of life feels like it glides. From being the hunted little girl to being the hunter on the prowl with the city in the palm of her hand wanting only a taste nothing more.”
Along with the tour dates with Chicano Batman that also features a show in El Paso, TX, Le Butcherettes will also have a string of headlining dates along with CocoVera, project of Le Butcherettes’ drummer Alejandra Robles and Janelle Obert of Stars at Night.
“We are very grateful for the upcoming tour with Chicano Batman. We have been fans of theirs for a long time and are very grateful to be able to go on tour with them for two months! We are so happy that this is happening because they are one of the world’s greatest & creative bands while maintaining their humility, we are fortunate enough to call them our allies”, Teri said about the tour.
