BRP's colourful Sea-Doo Spark watercraft featured in Capital Cities' new music video "One Minute More"

VALCOURT, QC, July 4, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - BRP celebrates the fourth of July with Capital Cities' latest music video "One Minute More" featuring BRP's new Sea-Doo Spark watercraft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0IIYU9om_k

"The song is high-energy and musically colorful," said Ryan Merchant, one half of the band Capital Cities with Sebu Simonian. "We wanted to create a visual escape using a dreamlike summer lake set with Sea-Doo Spark watercraft to provide the happy and upbeat contrast to the emotional storyline of the video. What's more fun than Sea-Doo watercraft on the water in the sun?  It epitomizes summer fun."

The "One Minute More" song is also the featured soundtrack for the Sea-Doo Spark broadcast commercial spot, "Spark Some Fun". Through collaboration on the project, Capital Cities became enamoured with the watercraft's colourful and spirited visual appeal, deciding to give Sea-Doo Spark models the leading role in their latest video. The Capital Cities new "One Minute More" video follows on the heels of a week-long Sea-Doo Spark concert project with EDM music producer deadmau5 and is the next stage where millions of music fans will see how much fun owning a Sea-Doo Spark watercraft can be.

"Capital Cities is one of the hottest up-and-coming bands and the Sea-Doo Spark watercraft is poised to be the biggest watersport hit of this summer. The opportunity to bring the two together in a summer fun-themed new music video is a perfect combination," said Chris Dawson, vice-president and general manager, Global Sales and Consumer Experience division.

The new Sea-Doo Spark watercraft is making the on-water lifestyle available to a new group of consumers as it is the most accessible watercraft on the market by being close to 40% less expensive than the closest model¹, the most fuel-efficient², easy to tow and to store. But most of all, the all-new Sea-Doo Spark watercraft is compact, lightweight, visually stunning and an absolute blast to ride.
