New York, NY (Top40 Charts) After seven months of quarantine and trial-and-error DIY cocktails, it's good to see the nightlife scene again …. even if it is on screen. In his new "Need A Bar Sometimes" music video, multi PLATINUM-selling and Show Dog Nashville country artist Clay Walkercaptures the loneliness of the current bar scene, filming in an empty Froggy and Jeffro's Bar in Spring Hill, TN. Watch "Need A Bar Sometimes," premiering with Cowboys & Indians today, here: cowboysindians.com/2020/12/video-premiere-clay-walker
"Need A Bar Sometimes" marks Walker's first new music video in 8 years since his hit "She Won't Be Lonely Long." Directed by videographer Matthew Paskert (Jake Owen "Made For You," Tim McGraw " Way Down"), the video captures the distant familiarity of smoky rooms and neon glows with a ships-passing-in-the-night-esque scene.
"It's been eight years since I've shot a video, and I've got to say this was probably the most fun video that I've ever done," says Walker. "When the other songwriters and I started writing, we were talking about the coronavirus and not being able to get out and spend time with our friends. Then, someone said 'we all need a bar sometimes,' and we knew immediately that we had to write that. There have been plenty of times when I've partied at a bar and times that I've been brokenhearted too. There's not a line in this song that I haven't lived."
Produced by Michael Knox (Jason Aldean) and Jaron Boyer and co-written by Walker alongside Boyer, Josh Mirenda and George Birge, "Need A Bar Sometimes" has amassed millions of on demand streams and debuted as the third most added single on country radio. It's slated for Walker's soon-to-be-announced 2021 album and serves as "a strong reminder of what a good country singer [Walker] is" (Billboard). For more information, visit claywalker.com.
