New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Daryl Mosley's fans - like his neighbors back home - were quick to lend a hand and a personal photo to help Daryl put together his latest music video, "In A Country Town."
Music lovers from locations across the U.S. to far flung Sydney, Australia and Chatel, France submitted pics to Daryl's Facebook page, and he chose 60-plus to include in this compelling video. Some viewers might recognize award-winning singer/songwriter Irene Kelley in one image: she is shown in her hometown of LaTrobe, PA with a statue of the "ultimate neighbor," Mr. Rogers.
The clip, which premiered on The Country Note, scrolls through images that epitomize the country town dynamic: churches, rainbows, flags, silos, barns, town squares, meadows, monuments and Main
Streets put plenty of sugar in this tea. "In A Country Town" is from Daryl's debut CD, THE SECRET OF LIFE, which currently sits at #5 on the
Roots Music Report Bluegrass Album chart and #6 on the Bluegrass Unlimited Album chart. The tune is a tribute to Mosley's hometown of Waverly, Tennessee.
"It's my family's home and always has been," Daryl says of Waverly. "It's everything a small town should be, firmly rooted in the values and traditions of the past while still looking towards the future. I love this place and was proud to honor it with a song that's a celebration of the simple things in life that make us who we are."
The toe-tapping, banjo-bright mid-tempo features IBMA award-winning vocalist
Jeanette Williams on harmony and was co-produced by Grascals' member
Danny Roberts and Mosley. To keep up with all things Daryl Mosley, find upcoming tour dates, news stories and more, visit the singer's official website @ darylmosley.com or catch up on Facebook.
