Jun 16, 2011 Friendly Fires By Margot Cooper Gruen

Dance band Friendly Fires have released a video for their second single from their sophomore album Pala, “Hawaiian Air.” The band is aboard a flight to Hawaii and deal with the nuisances of annoying seated neighbors including children and a pair who have decided they cant wait until they get off the plane to hop on top of each other. Not to mention the broken seat and passenger who can’t seem to get his meal into his mouth. The victory of landing in Hawaii makes it all seem worth it as the band frolics through the pacific paradise.

Friendly Fires is touring around the world this summer and fall in support of their recent release. Check out the dates below.
