Anna von Hausswolff has released a video for her new track The Mysterious Vanishing Of Electra.

The song was first unveiled in December and is taken from her upcoming album Dead Magic, which will arrive on March 2 via City Slang.

The promo stars Siri Wigzell and von Hausswolff and was directed by Anna’s sister Maria von Hausswolff, who recently won the Cinematography Debut award at the Camerimage film festival.

Maria says the video was “driven by a desire to dig up something that has been wanting to get dug up for a long time.”

She adds: “It’s a transition of music, character and images as it continues the ongoing story from my previous music videos for Anna.”

Von Hausswolff is joined on the follow-up to 2015’s The Miraculous by guitarists Karl Vento and Joel Fabiansson, keyboardist Filip Leyman, drummer Ulrik Ording and bassist David Sabel. String arrangements on The Truth, The Glow, The Fall and Källans Återuppståndelse are provided by Úlfur Hansson.
