Pixies Premiere New Music Video for "Magdelena"

PIXIES PREMIERE NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR "MAGDELENA"
LOS ANGELES, CA - MONDAY, January 27, 2014 -- A brand new Pixies music video for the song "Magdelena" premieres today on YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDRAQfgUPZQ

The video was conceived and directed by Judy Jacob (for Everything is OK), who directed and edited some of the highly-stylistic films made for Pixies' 2009-2011 "Doolittle" world tour.  Completely different from the other Pixies music videos for this project, the provocative "Magdelena" clip stars innovative British dance/theatre/performance artist Nando Messias.
"Magdelena" is the second video from Pixies' EP-2, released on January 3, and the song, as the band's Black Francis put it, is "basically a blues-shape with a Beatles-esque left turn, and a lot of Pixies-referential lyrics."

Pixies are currently in the midst of the North American leg of their 2013-2014 world tour.  They head to South America at the end of March for a series of major festivals including performances at Lollapaloozas in Chile, Argentina and Brazil, and then return to Europe  for the summer festival circuit.  Dates are below.
