L Devine Unveils Short Film For ‘Peer Pressure’ Mixtape

Newcastle-based pop artist L Devine has just unveiled her sophomore 6-track mixtape, Peer Pressure and to accompany the release she released a short film, directed by Emil Nava, which features songs from the mixtape. The video serves as L Devine's commentary on the thoughts and bs that comes from going through adolescence where teens try to figure out how to be themselves but at the same time try to fit in with everyone else. She shares the message that it is ok to feel like an outsider.

The ‘Peer Pressure’ film picks up where ‘Growing Pains’ ended. I’ve left the comfort of my hometown Whitley Bay and my friends and family and I’m now trying to find my place in the world as an adult. The film shows me roaming the streets of a lonely Hollywood, fantasising about killing my peers and feeling like an alien outcast from another planet, dressed up in an astronaut suit. These themes symbolise my feelings and experiences navigating through existential crises, toxic relationships and anxiety whilst still being a young person who goes to parties, and has fun, makes music and falls in love.
