There was an overwhelming response. Nearly 3,000 images were submitted from over 30 countries, from Britain to Brazil to Japan to Australia, all capturing an epic summer of music. The images turned out to be stunning and allowed the fans to pay a real part in the band's creative process. The best have been weaved together by director Poppy De Villeneuve to tell the story of a festival day, with The Vaccines at its heart.
The band's lead singer Justin Young said: “We always talk about breaking down the barriers between the band and the fans. We like sharing music with them, meeting them, interacting with them, as most bands do. So this felt like the ultimate interaction. Instagram was suggested to give photos taken on people's phone a nice warm feel. It’s great to be able to make the fans part of our art.”
