Photo Credit: Sammy-Jo Lang-Waite  April 4, 2025 - Following a triumphant 10-date Australian tour with Kylie Minogue, Mallrat is set to embark on her highly anticipated world tour, beginning April 29 in Dallas. In celebration, the Brisbane-born artist unveils the new music video for "Hideaway," a highlight from her latest album, Light hit my face like a straight right, out now via Nettwerk. Directed by longtime collaborator Tom Carroll, the video is a striking reimagination of medieval fantasy infused with euphoric rave energy.   Inspired by the track’s propulsive beat and lyrical warmth, the “Hideaway” video transports viewers to a mythical kingdom where a noble knight and a formidable dragon engage in an emotional battle—not of conquest, but of unity and protection. As the knight leads the charge, the kingdom transforms into a vibrant celebration, culminating in a breathtaking explosion of fireworks and communal bliss. Even the dragon, once a feared adversary, is swept into the revelry. Filmed with a raw, night-vision aesthetic, the video captures an unfiltered, intimate energy. Remarkably, the climactic rave scene was filmed in Mallrat’s own apartment stairwell, featuring friends and neighbors who turned the gathering into an unforgettable moment of collective joy.   Reflecting on the video, director Tom Carroll shares: "Grace, adorned in her glittering custom chainmail and fur coat, embodied the castle's rave atmosphere perfectly; she’s a total star. In pre-production, this was the standout styling reference we both really liked (though I didn’t think it was possible with the time available), and Grace just made it happen—magic. The vision came together so naturally; it’s surreal."   As Mallrat continues to shape her sonic universe, Light hit my face like a straight right stands as a testament to her ability to find magic in the mundane. Steeped in influences from her Brisbane upbringing, the album paints everyday symbols—boxing rings, excavator trucks, suburban landscapes—into deeply spiritual and evocative imagery.   With her world tour set to kick off at the end of the month, fans can expect an immersive live experience that brings the world of Light hit my face like a straight right to life.
