Colbie Caillat is out with the music video to her new single ‘Brighter Than The Sun’, the second release from the Malibu, California singer songwriter’s third studio album ‘All of You’, out July 12th via Universal Republic. The song serves as the official summer song for the OWN Network and is featured in the trailer for Disney’s new movie ‘The Help’.

“This song is awesome because it just gets people started right away and interested in what’s next,” Colbie explained. “A different instrument leads into each part of the song. It never stays the same, which keeps listeners wanting to hear what’s next.”

The Emil Nava directed video was filmed in the sunny Playa Del Rey beachside community of Los Angeles. Watch it via YouTube below.

Colbie Caillat ‘Brighter Than The Sun’ Video Behind The Scenes

Colbie Caillat just released a behind the scenes clip for her ‘Brighter Than The Sun’ music video, shot in Los Angeles and produced by Emil Nava. ‘Brighter Than The Sun’ is the second single from Colbie’s new album ‘All of You’, in stores July 12th on Universal Republic Records.

“The treatment for this video, ‘Brighter Than The Sun’, I wanted it to have a lot of movement and musicians just scattered around,” Colbie explained. “So I had this concept and I told it to the label and when directors submitted treatments, this one by Emil Nava I loved the most because he brought the outdoors inside. He made a grass bed and a lawn through the living room, and people are planting flowers and putting pots all through the house and there’s moss and vines in the walls and the bathtub with lily pads and water. It’s just really cool.”

I thought it was just annoying. I just wanted to hang out with my friends and family and boys kinda came last. Now I love this guy so much and I always want to be with him. I was expressing that to him and he wrote this fun song.” Watch the comments via YouTube below.
