Ahead of the weekend, Leeds-based outfit Yard Act shared the video for ‘100% Endurance’, the latest single taken from their critically acclaimed debut album The Overload - which charted at #2 and was officially the biggest selling vinyl debut of the century earlier this year. The clip sees the band join up with longtime collaborator James Slater, stars multi-award winning actor, and fan of the band, David Thewlis who said of the experience: “I’ve told my agent I’m only doing Yard Act videos from now on, though next time on a tropical island or a big yacht.” ‘100% Endurance’ also represents the first time Thewlis has filmed in his hometown Blackpool. Speaking about ‘100% Endurance’, frontman James Smith comments: “It was great shooting this video. I barely had to do anything, and I didn't have fake facial hair glued to me head for once. I still can't believe David got involved. I was such a fan of his work from Naked through to Fargo, and when I told James Slater he was interested in working with us he was so buzzing. A brilliant actor, and an absolute joy to watch work. Equally so, he is a thoroughly decent, down to earth person who is funny as fuck, and that goes a fair way I reckon.” Take a watch for yourselves below.
