Indie Pop Trio daysormay Tour Vancouver In New Video For “Role Model” ft Tessa Violet

Although their single “Role Model” was originally released back in 2018, Vernon, B.C. indie pop trio daysormay revisited the song and included indie pop songwriter Tessa Violet along for the ride on the remix. To go along with the new version of the song, the band have shared the freshly shot music video to go with it (note: the original is entertaining as well).

For the video, daysormay and Violet take advantage of the empty streets of dawn, allowing for fun camera work and a vicarious amount of freedom on a rainy Vancouver day.

“We’d all been awake for 24 hours or more,” says daysormay. “The night before the video shoot we were in the studio working on Tessa’s part all night and ended up only going home to grab camera gear between the studio and the shoot.”

Tessa adds: “We were like maniacs on that shoot day. We literally went straight from the studio at like 3 a.m. to shoot at dawn at 5 a.m. and were up for well over 24 hours. So much fun though to just be the four of us and our camera op running around Vancouver to put together this music video.”

With clear influences to Glass Animals, Portugal. The Man, and Phoenix, “Role Model” is an undeniably catch indie pop tune that showcases the band’s potential for a groundbreaking career.
