Indie alt-pop band Computer Games, comprised of frontman Darren Criss and multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Chuck Criss, have released their first music video for "Every Single Night," lead track from their debut album Lost Boys Life EP. Directed by Y2K, the video encapsulates the songs eclectic instrumentation, explosive rhythms, and juicy harmonies through vibrant visuals and playful choreography.
"Every Single Night" unapologetically summons the spirit of the great dance records of Miami Sound Machine, Lionel Richie, Peter Gabriel, and Phil Collins. Billboard deemed the hit as an early contender as a song of the summer.
Most recently Computer Games was nominated as one of Macy's iHeartRadio Rising Stars. The winning artist will open the 2017 iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas later this year. Fans can vote for Computer Games here.
Next month the group will ascend onto Los Angeles for their first ever show taking place on June 4th at the Teragram Ballroom, which sold-out immediately.
The band released their debut album in early March entitled Lost Boys Life EP, which has received astonishing praise and garnered media attention. Entertainment Weekly labeled their sound as "a funky blast to the past in the spirit of some of the grooviest '80s superstar," while Teen Vogue described the album as "an indie gem filled with plenty of '80s pop inspiration and a dash of true DIY sensibility." Music from The Combined minds of the Criss brothers has been long overdue -- as the two have written, produced, and performed original songs together since high school. After many years of other projects shaping their individual careers, Computer Games has been on the back burner for over a decade. Lost Boys Life EP marks the lifelong goal of a sibling collaboration, and is the first major release from either artist in several years.
By combining the sounds of the 1980s with the brothers' love of contemporary pop production, Lost Boys Life EP explores the journey of trying to maintain boyhood ideologies while navigating the throes of adulthood.
The "Every Single Night" music video was director by Y2K, produced by Jesy Odio and edited by Severiano Martinez.
