NASHVILLE – July 25, 2013 – Thompson Square’s brand new video “Everything I Shouldn’t Be Thinking About” premiered today exclusively across CMT, CMT.com, CMT Pure and CMT Mobile.
Directed by Chris Hicky, the video allowed the duo to show off the carefree, fun-loving energy that have captivated fans at Thompson Square’s live shows and earned then both ACM and CMA “Duo of the Year” honors. In the video, real-life married duo Keifer and Shawna star as a spirited married couple living in the suburbs of the 1950s. The two young lovebirds shock their conservative (and nosy) next-door neighbors as Thompson Square’s scandalously flirtatious ways impact their – and their neighbors – everyday lives.
The location of “Everything I Shouldn’t Be Thinking About” will hold special meaning to country music fans. The video was shot on location at the final residence of late country legend Patsy Cline. The home, located in North Nashville, is famously known as “the house that Vegas built” due to its construction following Cline’s historic headlining shows at The Mint in Las Vegas. Now a private residence, the “Everything I Shouldn’t Be Thinking About” video marks the first time an artist has been allowed to shoot inside the homes’ walls, which still contains many of Cline’s personal decorating touches.
“Everything I Shouldn’t Be Thinking About” is already a Top 40 hit at country radio and is the follow-up to Thompson Square’s GOLD certified, #1 smash “If I Didn’t Have You.” Both songs appear on Thompson Square’s new album, JUST FEELS GOOD.
