Shmu is all about creativity. Without it, music just wouldn't be what makes it special. Shmu is the brainchild of singer-songwriter, and multiple instrumentalist, Sam Chown. Shmu's video for their single "Diamonds" is a trippy, fun-filled ride through New Orleans. The video blends together various style of cinematic visualizations; such as VHS style snow on the screen and multicolored, psychedelic waves layered over an outdoor performance that work perfectly along such a magnetic track.
