The brilliant new Dublin duo Aoife McCann and Ellie McMahon aka Æ MAK are influenced by tUnE-yArDs and Anita O’Day and perform with an emphasis on rhythmic vocal lines and harmonies.
The joyous ‘I Can Feel It In My Bones’ is their calling card, an exuberant call indeed, and here, for their first proper single release for the track, the pair are joined by dancers for this heartening dance video, directed by Graham Patterson and choreographed by Ryan O’Neill.
The song is from Æ MAK’s upcoming debut EP due in November. Catch the girls live in Dublin:

November 11th: “Some Kind of Gathering” alongside Beach, Spudgun and Wastefellow @ The Sugar Club
