May the fourth be with you. Beach Bunny travels far, far away in their latest video for “Karaoke,” featuring none other than lawyer-turned-space-commander Saul Goodman. That’s right: Bob Odenkirk makes an appearance in the clip.

In the video, Trifilio and her space squad are fitted up in Star Wars-inspired cloaks. They watch a vintage band (which is really themselves) perform on a retro TV set, while the track’s spacey, innocent flow renders through raindrop guitar picks and casual alt-rock drums.
“‘Karaoke’ is a song about having a crush,” Beach Bunny said in a statement. “It’s about infatuation, fleeting feelings, and the bittersweet nature of uncertainty. It’s about learning pieces of who someone is and liking them before even knowing the whole story.”
Better Call Saul‘s Odenkirk is apparently a fan of Trifilio. He appears at the end of the video, when his computer malfunction call to the group interrupts the broadcast. In the same voice Goodman uses when he instructs his clients on how to avoid execution, he says: “Star team. Do you copy? We intercepted intel regarding the whereabouts of Star Agent Zero … We need you to find Zero. Time is of the essence. The entire universe is counting on you.”
Beach Bunny made their Coachella debut last month, and are gearing up for their sophomore release, Emotional Creature, which is out on July 22. The Sean O’Keefe-produced album will be issued by Mom+Pop Music. You can catch the band on the road somewhere in the U.S. throughout May, and they have a show tonight in Omaha, Neb.
