Keaton Henson's music has a direct and powerful way of tugging firmly at your heart strings. In his video "Small Hands", he directs a question that I'm sure we've all wonder at one point: is love worth the pain of loss. His choice to use woodland creatures shows that even woodland creatures need love even if they do look like characters from
Fantastic Mr. Fox.
Directed by Joseph Mann, he uses a autumnal forest setting with a combination of stop-motion animals that at first look like loving animal couples and slowly with the lyrics of Keaton, thing start to dramatically take a wrong turn. It's weird to think that puppet animals can cause you to shed a tear, well be prepared.
"Small Hands" is taken from Keaton's debut album
Dear which will be re-released worldwide on April 2nd following a rush of interest in his music style. You can pre-order the album
