Las Bandas Be Brave

Director

Lewis Cater

Lewis Cater jumps from country music promos - with his recent video for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2025/03/28/maddie-tae-drunk-girls-bathrooms-lewis-cater/90530" target="_blank">Maddie &amp; Tae</a> -&nbsp;to riotous rock visuals, with this rousing video for Shinedown.&nbsp;Following a night across NYC, we follow a stranger from the streets to&nbsp;an enigmatic venue, where Shinedown perform to a frantic audience.Showing his visual breadth and masterful knowledge of the format, Cater is just as&nbsp;comfortable in grungy rock clubs as he is in dazzling Nashville landscapes.&nbsp;&nbsp;"We shot this amongst the backdrop of NYC, creating a video that showcases the city’s dance, fashion and raw energy," Cater explains. "I wanted this to be a sensory overload, packed with adrenaline, sweat and a Berghain aesthetic."He's certainly achieved that and more, bringing a fresh edge to a fun concept which aligns perfectly with the music.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Kacey Musgraves ponders life and the world around us in Lewis Cater's meditative promo for The Architect.&nbsp;Boasting a breathtaking&nbsp;location and sweeping, epic shots of the scenery, the video blends conceptual vignettes with laidback performance setups for Musgraves' Grammy-nominated song, that contemplates the questions of existence: is our world shaped by the hand of a divine creator, driven by the unstoppable forces of nature, or crafted through the intricate workings of scientific phenomena?&nbsp;Building upon the themes of the track, we see Musgraves putting together a giant grass puzzle, and bathing in mud, captured in a drawn-out, breezy way.&nbsp;It's splendid work from Cater and team -&nbsp;a love letter to the world we live in, and an empowering showcase for Kacey Musgraves.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Lewis Cater follows the enigmatic promo for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2023/01/26/shinedown-dead-dont-die-lewis-cater/80130">Dead Don't Die</a> with another Shinedown collaboration - this time for A Symptom Of Being Human.&nbsp;The video deals with the unique yet universal challenges that are part and parcel of being human, touching upon anxiety, the cost of living&nbsp;and the overarching search for meaning in the everyday.&nbsp;Visually representing the highs and lows of life, the video focuses on a young girl, who discovers a book in a grand library with completely blank pages. She soon projects her fear and anxieties onto the page, until a breakthrough moment shines a light on the brighter side of life, and the friends who help her navigate the storm.[imgtoken data:1]The slick, filmic aesthetic perfectly contrasts the golden light of the library with the cold, clouded gloom of her fear vignettes, and the central performance helps marry the different setups to great effect.&nbsp;&nbsp;"There’s something quite magical about filming in London in December and we quite literally captured this underneath the festive glow of Westminster," Cater explains. "We were blessed with such an amazing team who stepped straight onto this after we wrapped on the Dead Don’t Die video."

Shinedown 'A Symptom Of Being Human' by Lewis Cater

Shinedown - A Symptom Of Being Human (Official Video)

Lewis Cater directs a minacious promo for Shinedown, where under the ominous surveillance of an unspecified evil, the US rock band&nbsp;look fear straight in the eye.&nbsp;The video for Dead Don't Die jumps between a rowdy performance section in an ornate structure, and enigmatic vignettes with frontman Brett, where various weapons and objects hang mid-air, threatening to break through and injure him - but unable to do so.It's a thrilling addition to both the band and Cater's videography, and packed full of filmic moments and great performances.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;&nbsp;"We shot the video for Dead Don’t Die straight after the band’s Wembley headline show last month," Cater says.&nbsp;"It was a special shoot as it was the first time that the band had shot a video outside of United States."It’s a video about resilience, the strong-willed, the bend but never break human spirit. The power of the mind is extraordinary. The band use their strength within to control the darkness and retreat to a more positive space."We follow Brent (Shinedown's frontman) as he is pursued by an unspecified evil. He passes by each band member as they use their energy to control a moment of wickedness. Brent is then confronted. Using MoCo, we had bullets build up around Brent. The power of his mind pushes to the forefront as the bullets are suspended. After overcoming each of their obstacles, the band are united for one final test."[imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;

Craig Gorman and his biker gang wheelie their way through Dublin's suburbs, in&nbsp;Lewis Cater's promo for Workout.&nbsp;In the video, we see vocalist Alex Hosking lead&nbsp;a fitness class in a warehouse space, intercut with the biker action just up the road.&nbsp;Eventually, both worlds collide as the boys crash the class, and Gorman gets on the decks to amp up the party vibes.&nbsp;Aidan Gault's cinematography carefully treads the line between gritty exterior scenes and polished interiors, creating the contrast between the worlds, and the lighting in the warehouse space - consisting of several pastel-coloured light sources illuminating different sections of the space - really elevates the aesthetic.&nbsp;
