RICHIE QUAKE BIRTHDAY PARTY

Brooklyn-born, Lower East Side-based alternative artist Richie Quake shares eclectic visuals for his quirky and artistic anthem ‘Birthday Party’. Taken from his lush yet grungy sophomore album, Dog, which delves deep into Richie's relationships, the track pulls us into his unique perspective on everyday experiences. A vibrant anthem led by his earnest vocals and ethereal musicality, the track is bolstered by the innovative visuals inspired by AI images of a family created by director Peter Suski. Shot in Quake’s grandfather's apartment, the music video unfolds with a contrasting narrative as it depicts a family of misfits juxtaposed by the seemingly "normal" birthday party they are throwing. -Malvika Padin
