The music video, directed by Lloyd Norman, follows a married couple on a journey from Nashville, Tennessee to a Big & Rich concert in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. In the video, the couple is shown hiking in the mountains, dancing on the beach and appearing on stage with Big & Rich [2] The performance shots were filmed during Big & Rich's set at the Carolina Country Music Festival in June 2015.[3]

The climb up the chart however was slow, and it entered the Hot Country Songs at No. 39 on the August 29, 2015 chart. The song peaked at #11 on Country Airplay and was still climbing the charts when it was pulled from radio so the duo's next single, "Lovin Lately" could be released.[5] The song has sold 103,000 copies in the US as of November 2015.[6]
