The Vindys Release “Bugs” Music Video
The Vindys, one Ohio’s favorite bands, will release a special vinyl edition of their album Bugs this Record Store Day on Black Friday, November 25, 2022. And in honor of the release, The Vindys has released the music video for the album’s title track “Bugs,” today. The song, with mesmerizing and hypnotic beat, was mixed by Ryan West (Rihanna, Eminem, Jay-Z). Metaphorically “Bugs” is about the things that keep Popovec awake at night, but the video, which was directed by Pete Campbell and filmed at a private home in Canfield, OH, was inspired by her real-life experience of finding 10,000 yellow jackets behind the walls in the ceiling of her bedroom. Says Popovec, “we took this literal story and made a sort of inception-like dream within a dream music video where I fall asleep and wake up to insects (The Vindys band members) disturbing me. The video follows a spiraling wonderland into several scenes before waking up and realizing it was all a dream.”

Live Review: The Vindys
The Vindys is a straight-forward, in-your-face, rock & roll outfit with a few twists and turns. Equipped with a horn section, they came out swingin’ for the fences and were hitting home runs all night long. Rock & roll in the style of Led Zeppelin with two solid guitars leading the way for Popovec to cut through the chaos with superb vocals. A little bit country, a little bit reggae and a lot of rock & roll will brighten up anyone’s day.
