With a shiny US record deal under their belts, The Phoenix Foundation are getting ready to take over the world with their upcoming third album entitled "Happy Ending" (which dispenses with - disappointingly - the equine-themed nature of their previous two releases: "Horse Power" & "Pegasus").

Here's the first single and video from the album, shot, I'm told, in Island Bay, and directed by fellow Wellingtonian and Oscar-nominated film-maker, Taika Waititi.
