Last April after a show we were reached out to by filmmaker @joe.long_films with an idea of creating a music video. We met for coffee and were shown initial mood and storyboards containing visuals and early conceptions. They were abstract, stunning and completely fitted to the atmosphere of the music. A perfect visual accompaniment. We started shooting in October at @texasfilmstudio
“Memory” is set to be released today at 9PM CST. Join us this Valentines Day for the live premiere tonight @elysiumaustintx for the 4th Annual Gothic Hearts Ball & Bazaar🥀

2025 gave lots of surprise and moments of suspended disbelief. From only starting this project last summer it’s very humbling to have been apart of so many special shows and festivals this year, some with artists I draw strong aspirations from. Complete joyride.
Among other milestones the release of In Light, our debut music video wrapped up (release date TBA) as well as physical merchandise, Past Model has seemingly grown from a small idea into something much more this year and I thank everyone who has supported us. Can’t wait for what 2026 has in store.

Still reeling from the incredible experience of playing Hot Summer Nights and feeling all that energy we shared together. Huge thanks to @elysiumaustintx and @redriverculturaldistrict for having us. It means so much to help grow and preserve this district—for what it has symbolized to us over the years and for what it means to Austin’s identity.
Until next time 🔥🌙
