Pete Fij (Adorable) and Terry Bickers (The House of Love) have announced the release of their debut single “Betty Ford”.
A video for the single is below. “It was a ridiculously cold day” says Pete “20 minutes after we finished filming it began snowing, and my body went into shock shortly afterwards. The playback packed up after the first take, so what you see is an unrehearsed first time take, but I’m not sure my body would have allowed any more – I began showing all the classic signs of hyperthermia afterwards and became quite light-headed and disorientated for some hours after.”
