Step Into Nice Wave's Comforting Paradise with "Warm Glow"
Something new is brewing in SoCal – emerging indie duo Nice Wave have released the music video for their second single “Warm Glow.”
Comprised of Dakota Blue and Bella Schilter, Nice Wave fuses an appreciation for the musical heritage of California with nods that span across decades. Dakota and Bella formed Nice Wave as an escape from the mundanity of everyday life, a therapeutic outlet for experimentation. Nice Wave capitalizes on these intentions with the “Warm Glow” music video, unveiling a blissfully delicate break from reality.
The music video—directed by Blue and LA-based cinematographer Priscilla Mars—features Schilter waking up in a garden, swaddled by her pastel quilt while surrounded by lush greenery and vivid flowers. Rather than succumbing to confusion, Schilter meanders through the beauty of this landscape, peering through a looking glass and sipping tea (à la Alice in Wonderland).
This relaxing imagery is enhanced by Schilter’s hushed vocals and Blue’s swirling guitar, which are guided by the rhythmic compass of beats sampled from Jarond Gibbs. Said the band of this release: “"Warm Glow" is not merely a song but a captivating experience—an invitation to let go of reality and immerse oneself in a world where timeless allure and modern indie elegance converge.”
Free-falling yet conscientious, “Warm Glow” illustrates the depth of Nice Wave’s potential.
