Haim is back with, "Right Now," the perfect song to get you through lonely, hot summer nights.

The video was directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, who apparently was their mom's art student when he was a kid, as the band told Zane Lowe.

"She would always talk about this one kid named Paul. That she loved this kid Paul he was very energetic, artistic, vivacious," said Alana. "We'd turn the TV on and Boogie Nights would come on or Magnolia and our mom was like, 'oh that’s Paul’s movie.' That being Paul Thomas Anderson. We were like mom are you talking about Paul Thomas Anderson? and she was like 'yes that is Paul, I Taught Paul.'"

Thank you for all that you've done, Haim's mom.
