When it comes to the world of dance, Anna Lunoe has been one of Australia’s most notable breakout stars. She earned her stripes on Sydney’s club scene, she kicked ass, she took the leap of faith over to Los Angeles, and has only risen from there. She’s toured with The Weeknd, released her music on labels from Fool’s Gold to Ultra, and now she’s back with a new one in ‘Blaze of Glory.’
The pop-tinged single shows Lunoe’s skills as both a producer and vocalist, with the song accompanied by a video featuring pastels aplenty, metallic pants (crucial) and choreographed dancing, co-directed by Lunoe herself and Alexandra Gavillet. Basically, it’s a whole lotta fun and #aesthetic heaven, and can be viewed below:

Lunoe will be back on Australian shores soon, playing at Splendour In The Grass alongside Kendrick Lamar, Lorde, MGMT and a stack of others. To celebrate her return, we have some behind-the-scenes images from the ‘Blaze Of Glory’ video, photographed by Elizabeth De La Piedra.
De La Piedra is another creative who was raised in Sydney before relocating to the States, having worked with global brands including Nike and ASOS. Here, she gives us some snaps from Lunoe’s video, as well as showcasing own lively approach to styling and creative direction. She’s now based in Chicago, and her husband, YehMe2 is currently touring around Australia as part of the Güd Vibrations tour.
You can see De La Piedra’s pictures below, and get ready to cut some serious shapes when Anna Lunoe hits Splendour In The Grass on Saturday, July 21:
