Danniel Oickle releases new video

Ottawa artist's first video from the album The Corruption of Flesh

Bytown native Danniel Oickle released a sexy new video Feb 29 — the first from his most recent album, The Corruption of Flesh.

The song, “For You,” received an “explicit” rating on iTunes.

Oickle says the video, which was filmed on location in Montreal and Ottawa, is “personal and intimate” and “an honest and vulnerable portrayal of love, lust and intimacy.”

The self-styled electro-poetic artist will perform songs from his new album on March 16 at the Mercury Lounge (56 Byward Market Sq). He will be joined by guest performers CC Trubiak and Olexandra Pruchnicky.

Watch “For You” below.
