Rising country duo Lakeview have released a thoughtful music video for their song, “She Drove Me to the Bar.”

Directed by Tyler Conrad, the emotional visual highlights the very real devastation that Nashville has faced this year: from being hit by a deadly tornado in March, to picking up the piece in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic soon after– which has undeniably ravaged the livelihood and economy of the city. 

“We’ve seen firsthand the massive impact the tornado and the pandemic have had on Nashville, and we wanted to do something to help,” the pair’s Jesse Denaro shared with The Tennessean in an interview. “Luke and I, along with our amazing team came up with the idea. We thought this would be a perfect time – and a perfect song – to use to highlight how important local Nashville bars are to this community.”

Lakeview’s Luke Healy added, “Nashville opened their arms to us. We want to do whatever we can with the small platform we have created to shed some light on how integral these establishments are to Nashville and their surrounding communities.”

“She Drove Me to the Bar” was co-written the country duo with Dave Thomson, and is the title track of their debut EP. The four-track collection features previously released songs “Rain Down,” “Poor Me” and “Eyes Closed.”
