Hana Vu has captured this transcendent exploration with this hypnotic hook and dedicated drive. This powerful array of emotions all emit from the dynamic vocal melodies and the intensity of those notes. The new single is built on this bed of punchy drum beats and percussive elements and these sweeping melodies which compliment and elevate the lyrics which steer the direction of the arrangement. Compelled and in awe of the gracious range this artist conveys within their work. The moment Hana’s distinct and compelling vocal notes join the new creation, you are hooked. The family environment created a contrast to Hana’s bursting performance and underscored the pain of not being visible, even sometimes by your own relatives.” I set the film in a family environment because as viewers we usually associate families with a sense of security and safety. Just like Hana, we’re trapped in a cycle of being constantly ignored.

By shooting the video in a single take we never let the audience off the hook. “ I wanted to make a video that expressed the feeling of not being seen when all you really want to do is explode. “ When I listened to ‘Keeper,’ I thought about how we’re all trapped by different societal expectations - whether it’s from work, family, friends or the devil inside ourselves,” says Houang. “ We had a few choreography rehearsals leading in, and then on shoot day we rehearsed for about 9 hours and only shot in the last hour.” “ Shooting ‘Keeper’ was really an intense experience,” says Vu. It was shot in a single take on 16mm film by cinematographer Andrew Yuyi Truong and it’s a compelling exploration of feeling unnoticed. The accompanying video, directed by Meagen Houang and choreographed by Jas Lin, sees Vu honing her artistic craft, both sonically and physically.
