 This is no foul play: Multi-platinum Quartz Hill Records artist Joe Nichols debuts the official music video for his latest single, the multi-meaning “Home Run,” today, Monday, November 15. The video world premiered on CMT this morning and will continue airing throughout the day on CMT Music. Fans can also check out the moving video at CMT.com. Filmed in and around Nashville including the Music City Baseball field, and directed by David “Doc” Abbott, the “Home Run” music video chronicles a day in Nichols’ life on the road and the sweet reunion with his family – wife Heather and daughters Dylan (9) and Georgia (7) – as he returns home on his bus. “This video really captures the lyrics of the song, those moments of me working and out on the road and getting to come home,” says Nichols. “I love that my family is in it. I loved having my wife and my kids, my mom, and my sister in it. That’s what I really miss when I’m out on the road. It’s the first time my wife, Heather has been in one of my videos so that was a lot of fun.” “Home Run” was penned by award-winning songwriters Ashley Gorley, Dallas Davidson and Ross Copperman. The song marks Nichols’ first new music since his 2018 EP, Never Gets Old: Traditional Country Series, and the first music since reuniting with veteran label head Benny Brown with whom Nichols enjoyed two multi-week No. 1 singles, the RIAA Gold-certified hits “Yeah” and “Sunny and 75” from the critically-acclaimed album, Crickets. The video premiere follows the announcement of Nichols’ long-awaited new album, Good Day For Living, releasing on 2/11/22. The 13-song collection, his inaugural project with new label home and tenth studio album, ushers in a new era of classic-influenced country music from one of the format’s most-lauded 21st-century traditionalists. His first new full-length project in four years, Good Day For Living reunites Nichols with acclaimed music producers Mickey Jack Cones and Derek George, who helmed his 2013 album Crickets containing back-to-back number 1 GOLD-certified hits "Sunny and 75" and "Yeah.” Cones also produced Nichols’ follow-up album, critically acclaimed Never Gets Old. In addition to his newest single, "Home Run,” the album features “Screened In,” (out now). "I Wanna Be Your Tonight" (available 12/10) and the title track," Good Day For Living” (available 1/28). The entire project is a no-doubt nod to Nichols’ traditional roots, showcasing his smooth baritone on Saturday night dancehall stunner “Brokenhearted,” the light and fun “I Got Friends That Do,” featuring Blake Shelton, and the classic country tear-jerker “She Was.” Pre-Save/Pre-Add Good Day For Living HERE.

Carter is also releasing a new music video for the remake of her breakout 2x platinum, award-winning, debut hit single “Strawberry Wine.” WATCH HERE (or below). From Carter’s signature songbird vocals and the piano intro that instantly takes you back to 1996, to the sonic sounds of country artists Ashley McBryde, Lauren Alaina, Kylie Morgan, Martina McBride, Vince Gill and the reimagined arrangement, Carter has outdone herself this time around. The girl power in the recording studio is as pure as the song itself, with glimpses of the emotional artists at the mic, the finest Nashville session players, and the bottle of bubbly to celebrate the session when they finished. The behind-the-scenes look was shot at Sound Stage Studios in Nashville.
The song -- co-written by Matraca Berg and Gary Harrison -- has stood the test of time; which is a testament to the power of a well-crafted story song and to Carter’s stunning voice. Even as a newcomer in 1996, Carter was able to waltz right in and reach No. 1 with “Strawberry Wine.” Her very first single off of her very first album went on to be named the Country Music Association’s Single of the Year and Song of the Year in 1997, and “Strawberry Wine” was also nominated for a GRAMMY for Best Country Song, the Academy of Country Music Awards for Best Country Song, and the Country Music Radio Awards for Song of the Year. The official music video from 1996 is full of nostalgia and was directed by Roger Pistole. The 25th anniversary editions of Carter’s album being released today from Capitol Nashville/UMe have been remastered from the original recordings and will be released on CD with two bonus tracks, as well as a Digital Deluxe with an additional ten songs, seven of which will be available digitally for the first time.CLICK HERE TO ORDER EITHER FORMAT. “These new versions are a way of raising a glass to everyone who loves these songs, and to the country radio stations still playing them, and to say thank you. I hope everyone enjoys celebrating 25 years of Did I Shave My Legs for This? as much as I've enjoyed putting together these very special releases,” Carter shared. Carter will be celebrating the album’s release when she headlines a one-night-only show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium on November 18, with special guests Charles Esten and Breland, as well as appearances by Terri Clark, Kylie Morgan and more surprise guests. Tickets available HERE. “It is such an honor and a career highlight to finally headline the Ryman, our sacred Mother Church, especially being a Nashville native and growing up in the industry, knowing that my dad, Fred Carter, Jr., performed on that stage with so many greats,” Carter says. “And all falling within the 25th anniversary re-release of my very first album Did I Shave My Legs for This? on UMG Nashville. It is a ‘pinch-me’ moment now, and it will be on that super special night, too.” In addition, Carter will be hosting a virtual listening party to let the whole world hear the album today (November 5) at 2 p.m. CT. Join HERE. And later this month, on November 16 at 8 p.m. CT, Carter will be chatting with fans about the 25th Anniversary Edition on Talk Shop LIVE, hosted by Kelly Sutton. Join that chat HERE.
