Yukimi Nagano of the Swedish band Little Dragon has released her first solo single, “Break Me Down,” a song co-written with English singer Lianne La Havas and her bandmate Erik Bodin.
Using only her first name, Yukimi has released a video for “Break Me Down,” which pays homage to Ingmar Bergman’s 1957 film The Seventh Seal.
Directed by Fredrik Egerstrand, the music video was filmed in Hovs Hallar, on the same beach where Bergman filmed scenes for the aforementioned film, and recreates the scene in which the character Antonius Block invites Death to play chess, with the intention of delaying his own demise.
