The xx released a new album, I See You, back in January via Young Turks. Now they have shared a video for “I Dare You.” It stars Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Eleven in Netflix’s Stranger Things. Here she plays a girl who misses the school bus and then skips school, blackmailing her older sister to let her spend the day with her. Ashton Sanders (Moonlight), Paris Jackson, and others are also featured, including The xx. Alasdair McLellan directed the video, which was made in collaboration with Calvin Klein CEO Raf Simons. Watch it below.

The band posted this statement about the video: “We are so happy to share our new video for ‘I Dare You.’ Our love letter to Los Angeles, a city close to our hearts, where we wrote and recorded parts of our album I See You. This is the third video, our friend, the wonderful Alasdair McLellan has directed for us. He collaborated with a hero of ours, Raf Simons on the creative concept and direction. It was amazing to work with both of them and such a pleasure to meet and work with Millie, Paris, Ashton, Lulu and Ernesto! Thank you to Calvin Klein and everyone involved. We hope you enjoy watching! xx The xx”
