On a Friday last month, State asked ASIWYFA to play a short set in the Musicmaker shop in Dublin during the day. We only announced it via Twitter and Facebook. It was the first in our hopefully long-running video series of pop-up gigs called State Intervention. We’ve got some super special guests lined up in the next few months so watch those channels.
It was directed by Bandwidth Films.

this state intervention is a great idea ,sorry i missed this one ,seriously good band.
Really really good idea, not sure about the choice of band but great idea!
jesus the principal camera is headwrecking. some wider shots / more angles wouldn’t have gone amiss.
otherwise great idea, nice spot and daycent band!
the cameraman has definitely been watching Vincent Moon’s ‘Take Away’ videos anyway.
He’s actually been doing it at least as long as Moon but no matter.
