Josh Kelley’slatest video will tug on the heartstrings of parents everywhere. “Naleigh Moon,” the track Josh penned about his adopted three-year-old daughter, Naleigh, comes to life under the direction of his wife, actress Katherine Heigl.
“I knew you were going to do a great job and you’re an awesome story teller,” Josh told Katherine at their family home. “Also, I knew you would do it for free.”
The video was shot in Los Angeles and includes home video footage of Naleigh over the past couple of years, including some of her first steps and fun in the swimming pool. Naleigh is clearly a loved little girl in the most personal video Josh has released to date.

Alan Jackson recently released his latest single, “So You Don’t Have To Love Me Anymore,” to radio and the video debuted this week. Directed by Steven Goldmann and filmed at Coney Island, the video tells the story of lovers who call it quits on their wedding day.
Closed for the winter, the amusement park provides a lonesome backdrop as the couple separately revisit the happier times of their relationship. As the video draws to a close, they metaphorically throw the good memories into the ocean in the form of an engagement ring and wedding bouquet so they can move on without each other.

When Craig Campbell was filming his latest video for the working class anthem “When I Get It,” he found life imitating art. Filmed at a private home in East Nashville, the crew found themselves without power during the shoot. It turned out the property’s owner had neglected to pay his electric bill which happens to be the basis of the song. The situation was corrected and a few hours later, they resumed filming.
Directed by Wes Edwards, the video is taken from one continuous shot without any editing. In the clip, Craig’s belongings are being repossessed by movers (played by his band members). “Rehearsing the complicated sequence of movers, camera, and Craig in order to do in one take was stressful, but paid off in the end,” Wes said. “We pulled it off in one take and I’m extremely proud of what we accomplished!”

Ronnie Dunn fans, the wait is over. Ronnie released his new single – and the video – this week. “Let The Cowboy Rock” is an up-tempo, guitar-heavy tune about leaving a cowboy alone so he can have a good time after having his heart broken. The track was penned by Ronnie and songwriter Dallas Davidson.
The video was filmed in Pendleton, Oregon during the Pendleton Round-Up with rider Blake Knowles, who plays the video’s lead character. Additional footage was filmed in Salt Flat, Utah and Nashville, Tennessee at The Stage on Lower Broadway.
