PETER DORAN releases new video for 'Nothing New Under The Sun'

Peter Doran has released a video for his brand-new single ‘Nothing New Under The Sun’, out now. The video was directed and shot by the husband and wife team of Lucy Jones and John Hennessy of Kerbute Productions. The track is taken from ‘Voices’, his upcoming album, due for release this year.

Supported by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sports and Media.

Peter Doran explains “The official video for ‘Nothing New Under the Sun’ came to be in the same way as just about everything else in the Universe:

“One small idea led to another until before I knew it I was standing in the cavernous space of an unused cinema in my Mullingar hometown with the camera rolling.

When I was a boy the Ritz cinema was coming to the end of its era but I did catch a few blockbusters there in my time. Before my time, my parents courted in the glow of the enormous screen. I’m told that space was used regularly for live music too and that in the 50s and 60s there was a stipulation that there had to be an interval in every feature where musicians would take to the stage and perform. I believe the great Joe Dolan was a regular performer here. All this is to say that the building is filled with a great history of film, music, community and young love. It was a real treat to spend a few hours there making this new video.”
