Following Friday’s release of his debut LP 99.9%, Montreal’s KAYTRANADA is back today to share the video for album highlight “LITE SPOTS“. The clip, which was directed by Martin C Pariseau, produced by Evren Boisjoli, Romeo & Fils with the assistance of MuchFACT, finds KAYTRANADA creating a new robotic friend with unlikely skills. While the two dance their way across town over the course of the day, viewers get insight into the personality of KAYTRANADA.
The clip’s release also comes on the heels of KAYTRANADA launching his world tour last week. Tonight he continues his run of Europe before returning to North America for a jaunt of headlining dates.
Check out the video for “LITE SPOTS” above and see below for all upcoming KAYTRANADA tour dates and 99.9% (which is available on CD/digital retailers now and vinyl on June 17th) information.
