Protecting the Hive(2020)

Overview

In March 2020, following the first weeks of lockdown Belle & Sebastian invited fans to share their thoughts and feelings while in self isolation. Their words became lyrics and formed part of an audio-visual piece narrated alternately by Stuart Murdoch and friend of the band Alessandra Lupo, accompanied by a striking visual by Kenny MacLeod of an aerial view of a deserted sunlit Glasgow during this period.
