Barry Keoghan Parties Hard in Fontaines D.C.’s ‘Bug’ Video

The visual is a reimagining of director Andrea Arnold’s feature film Bird, out this Friday

Director Andrea Arnold (Big Little Lies, American Honey) reimagined her upcoming feature film Bird for Fontaines D.C.‘s “Bug” video. The film — and now music video — stars Barry Keoghan.

Arnold’s Bird, out this Friday, is a coming-of-age film where Keoghan plays a character named Bug who is a troubled single dad to a 12-year-old daughter, played by newcomer Nykiya Adams. Arnold adapted scenes from the film for the video. This is Keoghan’s second music video appearance this year, having previously starred in girlfriend Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” video.

“‘Bug’ is a song that happened quickly and convinced everyone quicker. In my eyes, the character Bug, the tattoo “Bug’s Life,” Andrea’s essential & romantic worlds, and the line ‘Changed my name to “Promise you, Yea”‘; when put all together make convincing needless & conviction undeniable,” guitarist Carlos O’Connell, who also stars in Bird, said in a statement. “Big thanks to Andrea Arnold for letting us in so close to her visionary universe. She’ll be remembered how we remember Bacon or Goya.”

“Bug” is the latest single off the Dublin band’s fourth album Romance, which was released in August. The band will be touring through Europe and the U.K. this fall and will return for more North American tour dates in the spring.
