Imogen Clark Shares The Noise And Springsteen-Inspired Video

Just over a month from the release of her new album The Art Of Getting Through, Imogen Clark is sharing the album’s penultimate track The Noise, a defiant anthem from a woman just entering her prime.

“I wrote The Noise with my friend Eilish Gilligan, a great singer-songwriter in her own right.” Imogen explains. “We’ve both been through the ringer in the music industry, and we were both feeling like we’d just figured out who we are as people, overcome so much self-doubt and are ready to stand up for who we are as women and as artists. This business wants to put women out to pasture when they hit thirty, but I know I’m just getting started”.

Recorded in Los Angeles with producer Mike Bloom and Dawes drummer Griffin Goldsmith providing the ramrod backbeat, the track is a driving synth-laden fusion of indie pop and 80s rock, with a frenetic keyboard solo and glitchy hooks that become earworms.

The music video, directed by longtime collaborator Jeremy Dylan, is a gender-flipped homage to Bruce Springsteen’s classic Dancing In The Dark video, seeing Imogen become the Boss and dance on stage with a hunky fan. Check it out below:

The Noise is taken from the thirteen-track album The Art Of Getting Through, set for release on 31st May. Recorded between Los Angeles, London, Sydney, Melbourne and Nashville, the LP is the most ambitious artistic statement yet from an artist who is always challenging herself to push beyond her boundaries, an album about shouldering the weight of life’s baggage and power forward. Already released from the genre-busting record, are stunning tracks If I Want In, All Hard Feelings, Big One and Squinters.

It’s the continuation of a busy period of activity for the singer-songwriter, who hasn’t stopped moving since the release of her acclaimed Abbey Road recorded single If I Want In in October. Since then, she’s shared the stage with The Buckleys, CLEWS, Frenzal Rhomb’s Lindsay McDougall, Molly Millington, Sarah Belkner and Timothy James Bowen at her IMOJAM 2023 show, and toured nonstop, including shows with The Tallest Man On Earth, Sons Of The East, Steve Poltz, BOWEN * YOUNG, Robyn Hitchcock, Dan Sultan and Andrew Farriss. She will take her music to the Northern Hemisphere in the coming months, with shows in Nashville, Los Angeles and London.

“I sorta dug through all my songs that had strings on them. Usually how it goes is they kinda just do strings on top of the hits, but these were actually strings on all the records” Beck David Hansen states part way through what is, a truly magical evening of music, departing from the norm and going with his gut, in true Beck style.
