Poppy Releases Music Video For “Flicker”; Opening For Bad Omens In 2024

Today, singer, songwriter, subversive performance artist, video director, and purveyor of surrealist chaos Poppy shares the music video for song “Flicker” off of her most recent album, "Zig", released in October via Sumerian Records. Watch The Video For “Flicker” Here. Listen To "Zig" Here.

Directed by Le3ay Studio, the video is another captivating visual chapter in "Zig"’s story. It opens with a shot of Poppy crawling on the floor towards the light of a dimly-lit hallway with a sword strapped to her back, reminiscent of the album cover. The rest of the video includes kaleidoscopic choreography intercut with shots of Poppy standing in the same hallway shown at the start of the video as she pleads, “God, please be merciful”.

Originating from a dance background, Poppy’s first steps in the creative world began with performance art video vignettes. These vignettes evolved, allowing the unique, multi-hyphenate performer to dig deep visually and experiment sonically to create something entirely new. After initially signing to LA’s Sumerian Records, she released her album, 2020’s "I Disagree", to much acclaim. Disregarding labels and genres, it tallied over 100 million streams, and the song “BLOODMONEY” earned a GRAMMY nomination for Best Metal Performance, the first ever solo female artist nominated in the category

lacerating screamed lyrics, the perfect complement to dislodging the songs’ pointed pop edges. Since its release, "Zig" has earned over 12 million streams globally, launching Poppy to 663M streams globally. It also reached #8 on Billboard’s Current Alternative Albums Charts and #9 on Billboard’s Current Rock Albums Charts.

In September, Poppy concluded the 17-date co-headlining GODLESS/GODDESS tour with PVRIS and most recently delivered an electric performance at Mexico City’s Hell and Heaven Festival. 2024 is shaping up to be a massive live year for Poppy - in January, she will embark on the Concrete Forever Tour supporting Bad Omens in Europe.
