The Veronicas make directorial debut with "Biting My Tongue" music video

After years of being in front of the camera, Australian pop duo The Veronicas decided to sit in the director’s chair for their “Biting My Tongue” music video.

Released today, the music video finds them working alongside fellow twins Bud and Aidan Brennan Williams. In a joint statement about working on the video, the duo said:

“Stepping into the role as directors on ‘Biting My Tongue’ came as a very natural progression as we have always taken the reins on all aspects of our creativity.

Having always been heavily involved with the conception and creation of all our music videos, allowing ourselves that full creative control is where we feel most fulfilled and at home. We absolutely live for it.

We’ve wanted to work with Bud and Aidan Brennan Williams for some time since connecting with them online and knew this was the perfect opportunity. They are musicians themselves, with their band We Are One. Their charisma is captivating to watch onscreen and being twins we all have an intrinsic bond in knowing how to work together in a way only twins know how.

Taking on the role as directors gave us a chance to add another level to the character development that we love about creating music videos. When we found Aidan and Bud, we were thrilled to create a concept that would bring to our fans the chemistry and closeness of twinship. It gives a deep and intense view of the love and threat of that bond.” 

“Biting My Tongue” is the new single from The Veronicas’ upcoming studio album Human, which is slated for a release later this year. This will be the follow up to their 2014 self-titled studio album. The new single can be streamed and purchased here.
