London Grammar Finds Beauty in the Present Moment for Music Video 'House'

Taking inspiration from William Blake’s poem ’The Fly’, OB42 directing duo WAXXWORK follow up the success of 2023’s ‘Higher’ with their new video ‘House’ for London Grammar. The video was serviced by OB42 production friends Shishmish Films in Serbia.

Waxxwork (Timothy & Vikesh) said of the project, "For 'House' we wanted to use the fly as a catalyst and vehicle for our characters to meditate on their place in the world and the beauty of the present moment"

'Little fly,

Thy summer’s play

My thoughtless hand

Has brushed away.

Am not I

A fly like thee?

Or art not thou

A man like me?

For I dance

And drink and sing,

Till some blind hand

Shall brush my wing.

If thought is life

And strength and breath,

And the want

Of thought is death,

Then am I

A happy fly,

If I live,

Or if I die.'

William Blake, 1794
