Shepherd shared how the collaboration came about: “I met Ellis, the vocalist from the band at a gig when I was 16, so this collaboration was a long-

time coming.

“Producing the video was a laugh-riot, I felt right at home even though we had no idea what we were doing. We had a wee boogie, it was a real laugh filming.”

Struthers, a local musician from Bantaskine, dons cowboy attire as they play a bounty hunter called Sergio - tasked with hunting down Pandas band for stealing a Vespa.

The video trails the band as they are hunted from Kelvingrove park to the Glasgow Subway, culminating in a stand-off where the band needs to play a song to impress Struthers for their bounty to be waived.

Shepherd went on to share how much their favourite parts of production, stating: “My favourite scene we filmed had to be in the Glasgow Subway, we got told off by the conductors so many times, but we managed to get it filmed.

“The chorus is definitely where it’s at for me, it really hypes up the sound and fits really well with the video.”
