I do love hearing from Diamond Rio, and today I got word that their new video for The Kick is available so I had to share it! The new song is a little different since it's an instrumental with the two new members of the band, but let me tell you, Carson on fiddle and Micah on drums are a great addition to an already legendary band! Check out some details from the press release from Christy at AristoPR and the official music video below!
"Known for making timeless country music for over thirty years, Diamond Rio is thrilled to announce the release of their latest video and song, “The Kick.” The highly anticipated instrumental track not only showcases the Grammy award-winning band’s talents, but also signifies a new chapter in their distinguished career with the introduction of two new bandmates... Marty, Jimmy, Dan, and Dana have been sharing the stage with two new faces, Micah Schweinsberg on drums and Carson McKee on fiddle/mandolin and harmony vocals.
“The Kick,” is the first song and video to be released under the new band configuration and displays the mastery of their respective instruments as it delivers a captivating blend of country meets bluegrass. The fast-paced and musically intriguing instrumental features the two new members in the accompanying music video filmed in Franklin, TN. The video was directed by the band’s drummer and new member Micah Schweinsberg. The band’s long-time guitar player, Jimmy Olander, developed and wrote the treatment. "
