About “Shotgun Paradise” Video

What began as a raw expression of protest evolved into something more when director Jared Sagal took the reins for the music video. Sagal, known for his creative and unconventional approach, transformed “Shotgun Paradise” into a captivating soccer-themed video featuring the talented John Farnworth. In the video, Farnworth performs mesmerizing soccer tricks alongside a young boy, distracting people while the boy pickpockets them, creating a visual metaphor that complements the song’s edgy undertones. While the video offers a playful and cinematic take on the song, the lyrics remain deeply personal to BOSCO, reflecting on a specific moment of violence and the broader themes of power and protest.
