French Cassettes | “On/Off“ (Official Music Video)

Johnny Knoxville immediately understood the assignment for the intricately chaotic “On/Off” music video, in which he plays the role of a mob boss helping San Francisco band, French Cassettes, execute a heist. French Cassettes’ music drifts skillfully between indie pop and rock n roll with sticky, mischievous and exhilarating turns. The “On/Off“ music video was shot on 16mm film by Jared Clark Gay and Scotty Vance. The video is nostalgic and dusty, much like the song itself, written by Scott Huerta and jolted through a tape machine by Mackenzie Bunch. Knoxville likes French Cassettes, too. He told Noisey, “They write some damn catchy tunes.” Read more on Noisey: Director: Jared Gay DP: Scotty Vance Editors: Jared Gay & Jack Mergist Producer: Madison Clapp Cast: Johnny Knoxville, Scott Huerta, Rob Mills, and Mackenzie Bunch @French Cassettes You Should Subscribe Here Now: ** Subscribe to Noisey on YouTube to stay updated on our daily releases: Videos, daily editorial and more: Like Noisey on Facebook: Follow Noisey on Twitter: Read our tumblr: Check out our Instagram: More videos from the VICE network:
