Starring MØ as the main protagonist, the colourfully-shot short film follows the emotional highs and lows of a relationship falling apart. Echoing the sentiment of the lyrics, the video shows the importance of knowing when to let go.
The pair’s standout production style shines through on the single; a rolling RnB style beat underpins their trademark warm chords and clipped, pitched up vocal details. Paired with MØ’s distinctive voice and rousing choruses, ‘Don’t Leave’ is an emotive yet forward-thinking ballad. The relatable single has already had an incredible reception since its release just two weeks ago, having amassed over 15 million streams total in that time.
This new single is set to build on an incredible past year for Snakehips, whose most recent single ‘Cruel’ featured the vocal talents of bonafide superstar Zayn. They achieved their first top 5 and won an Ivor Novello for their Platinum selling single ‘All My Friends’, a collaboration with Chance The Rapper and Tinashe. Their popularity extended to their tour schedule; this year Snakehips played at the likes of Coachella, Lollapalooza, Glastonbury and Bestival, sold out headline shows at London’s KOKO and LA’s The Wiltern, as well as touring across America, Australia, Europe and Asia.
