Waiting for Maggie Rogers to release her full EP has been an arduous task ever since we all first heard her breakout hit “Alaska.” Luckily, she keeps giving us something new to obsess over. Today that thing is the video for her latest single “On + Off,” which sees Rogers and a trio of backup dancers working through choreography and costume changes in what appears to be one continuous take. Rogers comes across as charming, lacking the distance that often results from traditional pop shine (see: Sia), which makes it obvious why director Zia Anger left in the moment when she and her compadres break into laughter after completing the routine.
Watch the video for “On + Off” above and check out past videos for “Alaska” and “Dog Years,” both also directed by Anger, here and here, respectively. Maggie Rogers is set to appear on The Tonight Show later this month, and just wrapped up her first tour, with plans to head back out on the road later this month through mid-April. See those dates below.
