Just when we were about to put on the flying-toaster screensaver and pop 'round the pub for a pint, a swell bulletin landed in the inbox from Tristen, the savvy songstress at the center of C A V E S, our

No. 1 local album of 2013

. She's made a video for "Catalyst," a dance-friendly number from the aforementioned crowd-funded record, which premiered via

Nylon

earlier today. The video, put together by Seth Pomeroy and Michael Carter, focuses on an affair at the kind of big weekend party you'll be familiar with if you're a fan of Downton Abbey, Gosford Park or other programs in which the upper crust is not on its best behavior. You'll likely recognize a slew of local talent as well, and if you're into wardrobe, praise local photographer Bekah Cope for a job well done. See the video above, and see Tristen kick off her tour with Jeremy Messersmith at The High Watt on Tuesday, Jan. 28. Advance tickets are $10 and

available now
