"Jericho" is a single by British recording artists Bette, and SPELLS.
Background[edit | edit source]
Following the success of previous dance-oriented singles, Bette announced the fourth full single release from her self-titled debut album would be a collaboration with celebrated dance producers SPELLS. The track revisited the melancholic themes, allusions to her strained relationship with her father Alex Washington that informed the early sessions for the album.
Music Video[edit | edit source]
The music video for "Jericho" saw Bette walking alone down the centre of the road throughout London. Loosely inspired by the video for Everything But The Girl's "Missing", a despondent Bette begins her journey through central London early in the dark of the early morning, and emerges in the countryside by dawn.
