Chris Housman has unleashed the music video for ‘Laid Back', the latest visual to accompany songs from his recently released album ‘Blueneck'.
The summer song is written by Housman along with Emily Kroll and Christian Wood and produced by Wood. Watch the sun-drenched music video below:
Housman shares of the track, “I love Country music and feel-good beats, and ‘Laid Back' encapsulates both of those to me. I wanted to write a song reminiscent of those quintessential drinkin’ and sunnin’ songs you’d have on repeat on the boat on a hot summer day.”
The video is directed by Ford Fairchild and produced by Rebecca Adler. It premiered via YouTube with the Housman hosting a live Q&A before sharing the video. Shot at Percy Priest Lake, the video finds Housman and friends, including fellow queer country artists Brooke Eden and Adam Mac, enjoying a day of fishing and fun in the sun.
“Filming the video for ‘Laid Back' was exactly that…spending the day on the water having a great time with great friends. One of my favorite things to do,” shares Housman. “We borrowed Adam and his fiancé Lee’s boat nicknamed ‘She Ain’t Fancy But She Floats’ – an appropriately named vessel for a song about making the perfect lake day out of a little. I grew up loving Country summer songs, and I hope the video shows that beer, boats and fishing are for queer people too!”
The video follows previous releases ‘High Hopes‘ and ‘Guilty As Sin‘, both of which have garnered the singer-songwriter plenty of attention.
