Paul Weller premieres video for his beautiful new track Gravity

Paul Weller has released a video for his new single Gravity.

It’s the latest material taken from his new album True Meanings, which launched last month via Parlophone. Gravity follows Moving On from the record and Aspects, which Weller launched back in May to mark his 60th birthday.

The Gravity video was directed by actor, writer and director Johnny Harris, with the soundtrack for his most recent film Jawbone written by Weller.

Weller wrote Gravity several years ago and had performed it live before including it on True Meanings.

He explains: “It just wouldn’t have fitted on to either Saturn’s Pattern or A Kind Revolution, so I just put it to one side for a long time.” 

Weller has a handful of live dates planned for this month, including two performances at London’s Royal Festival Hall on October 11 and 12.
