*[press release] FilmAid unveils its first music video, an inspirational project based on the hit single 'A Heavy Abacus' by indie rock band The Joy Formidable and directed by award-winning filmmakers Paola Mendoza and Topaz Adizes. Watch the video below.
Paola and Topaz spent a month volunteering as Visiting Teaching Artists for FilmAid in Kakuma Refugee Camp in Northern Kenya. While there, they were inspired to shoot a video inside the camp starring young Sudanese refugees. Filming was a collaboration with the community over just three days, using one camera, two light reflectors, and an iPhone.
The Joy Formidable are quoted as saying: "It is an honor to be involved in this deeply touching video created by Paola Mendoza and Topaz Adizes. We hope it encourages support for FilmAid's work with displaced communities and helps build awareness of the global refugee crisis."
*[filtermagazine.com] It’s been four years since hearing anything new from The Helio Sequence, partially due to a flood that wrecked the entire studio and practice space of their Portland home base, and partially, because, well sometimes an album takes four years to write.

Check out the album’s trailer below, and look out for further upcoming news on the band.
