Today, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Luke Hemmings premiered the official music video for his latest single, ‘Motion’. WATCH HERE.
Directed by Australian Kris Moyes (The Presets, Gordi, The Temper Trap), the video is an exhilarating, psychedelic trip through Luke’s psyche. Complete with data-moshed footage shot through deserts, warehouses, driveways and more, the video explores the distorted realities that can exist in our heads and can manipulate the way we experience and view the world. The song will appear on his forthcoming debut solo album When Facing The Things We Turn Away From, out August 13 via Sony / Arista Records.

Of the video, Luke shared, “I love this video. It was such a pleasure to work with fellow Aussie and director Kris Moyes. He worked with my vision for this video and took it way beyond what I thought it could be. Hope you enjoy it! ️” Kris continues, “With the help of Luke’s highly organised creative mind and my heroic, ever-patient producer, we created something really special; to me, the work feels like we are in the point of view of a young Heidegger swaying in the motions of meaning and time.”
‘Motion‘ is the second single to be released from Hemmings’ upcoming album, following the release of his debut ‘Starting Line‘. Embraced with a sea of support globally, Luke has garnered widespread acclaim and support from Billboard, NYLON, NME, tr iple j, The Daily Telegraph, RAGE, and many more with ‘Starting Line’ already boasting over 8 million streams globally.
Luke is best known as the lead singer of 5 Seconds Of Summer and has co-written some of the band’s biggest hits including ‘Youngblood’, ‘Teeth’, ‘Want You Back’ and ‘Lie To Me’.

About LUKE HEMMINGS
With ‘Starting Line‘, Luke Hemmings introduced the world to a new side to himself and his artistry, born out of need in the midst of the pandemic. Best known as the lead singer of the multi-platinum phenomenon 5 Seconds Of Summer, for the first time the Sydney-born and Los Angeles-based multi-hyphenate channels his dedication, passion, and energy internally, on his forthcoming record, When Facing The Things We Turn Away From.
Motivated by pushing his creative limits, Hemmings’ solo debut is a natural and necessary sidestep to help Luke make sense of a decade spent in constant motion. Following his inner-muse and authentic creative self, the result is a definitive, deeply personal record about Luke: the artist, songwriter, musician, and human. The greatest challenges arise from within, and Luke Hemmings’ solo debut is the outcome of rising to that occasion.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
