LAKEVIEW SHINE A LIGHT ON MUSIC CITY IN BRAND-NEW VIDEO FOR “SHE DROVE ME TO THE BAR”
AIMS TO RAISE AWARENESS TO THE STRUGGLES OF THOSE WHO WORK IN THE NASHVILLE BAR INDUSTRY
Photo Finish Records rising duo LAKEVIEW bring their new song to life with a tribute to Music City in the video for “She Drove Me To the Bar” – premiering exclusively on The Tennessean yesterday (7/14).
Wanting to give back to the local community that has embraced them since they made their move from Pittsburgh to Nashville, Jesse Denaro and Luke Healy (of LAKEVIEW) decided this video would be the perfect opportunity to do just that. From the aftermath of a deadly tornado in March to coping with the ongoing pandemic, this year has been a challenging one for Music City – and for the service industry in particular.
Directed by Tyler Conrad, the clip aims to bring awareness to these struggles by featuring interviews with two Nashville bar owners – Andrew Cook of East Nashville’s The Fox Bar & Cocktail Club and Kyle McPhee of Tin Roof 2 – as they talk about the realities of the past few months for them and their staff, while highlighting stories of hope and resilience along the way.
“We’ve seen firsthand the massive impact the tornado and the pandemic have had on Nashville, and we wanted to do something to help,” Denaro explains to The Tennessean. “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.”
“Nashville opened their arms to us,” Healy continues. “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.”
