He may not be Robert Palmer, but Roma! lead singer Stiletto loves being backed up by smokin' hot ladies playing instruments.

And that's just one of the visual pleasures that lies in wait when you dig in to this edgy ensemble that calls to mind the flamboyant art rock made popular in the 70s and 80s.

Their newest music video stars Jamie Clayton, from HBO's Hung, and sticks very closely to the album's retro inspiration. "We're a New York band telling a New York story," singer and founder Stiletto says. "Even though The Wild Party is technically set in the 1920s, it could just as easily be taking place any time between then and now. The more New York changes, the more it stays the same."
