WATCH: Gentle Bones throws more than a few punches in his new melancholic music vid

In case you didn’t know, local singer-songwriter Joel Tan (aka Gentle Bones) recently nabbed an MTV EMA nomination for Best Southeast Asia Act of 2016 and he’s the MTV Asia Spotlight Artiste for October. Plus, he’s just released a new music video for his single ‘Shifting Over’ from his sophomore record, Geniuses and Thieves. Lots of exciting stuff happening for him. 

You may have already heard the melancholic track if you’re a big fan and you listened to the album repeatedly when it first dropped — but check out the music vid below to watch the music come to life as the 22-year-old channels his acting chops and enters the emo zone by throwing punches at another guy and pummeling the muddy ground in anguish.
