Music video

The music video for "Two of Us" was released on 3 February 2020. Director Zac Lynch-Woodlock said "We all had a lot of fun making this clip. I've been friends with the guys for ages and when Glenn and Berney approached me about collaborating on a music video, I was super keen. They had some nice references in mind including the idea of doing the video as a one-shot which always presents its own unique set of challenges, Finding an interesting location that would allow continuous movement along a road for the entire song being one of them." Lynch-Woodlock said "We wanted to show Kenny's journey as a road to redemption and the clip picks up from the bloodied and beaten Kenny in the 'Good Lord' music video. 'Two of Us' travels with a bandaged Kenny as he transitions with the help of some friends to a place of happiness."[3][4]
