“One of our favorite things to watch are vintage informational films,” explains Joseph Andreotti, one half of the married duo Fawns of Love, which also includes his wife, Jenny Andreotti. Joseph took inspiration from these films to create the music video for “Something Stupid,” the flip side of the band’s new “Zine Days” 7-inch, available now.

“This film is called ‘Curious Alice’ from 1968, and was created by the National Institute of Mental Health with the intent to inform eight to ten-year-olds about the negative effects of drugs and alcohol use. Ironically, it’s a beautiful trippy film that defeats its’ own purpose, and reminds us a lot of one of our favorites, the 1977 Japanese film ‘House.’

About the video for “Zine Days,” Joseph says, “We think Flying Nun had the coolest roster on the face of the planet during the 1980s and 1990s, and they still do. “A lot of our favorite Flying Nun bands, like The Chills, The Bats, and The Clean, used stop motion in their music videos,” he explains of the technique appropriated for the “Zine Days” clip. “We aimed to capture the theme of the song by surrounding Jenny with objects she would have used during her adolescence, and by making it in 3-D we thought it would be a nice way to overdose on nostalgia.”

“Zine Days” arrives a year after the band’s debut album Who Cares About Tomorrow, and is the follow-up to its mid-2017 single release “Falling/Standing,” which Paste called a “dreampop gem,” and was honored as one of the best songs of the year by Los Angeles-based radio show Part Time Punks and venerable indie rock bible The Big Takeover.

“Gone are the zine days, Gone are the me and you days,” Jenny sings.

Both full-time teachers, the Andreottis have been married for 13 years, performing together for 16, and recording, touring and releasing music throughout that time under various band names.

“Zine Days” is the latest 7-inch by Fawns of Love, is available now. Jenny and Joseph Andreotti are available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic for more information.
