Charley Crockett has shared a new music video for his track “Odessa,” a cut from the country talent’s recently-released album The Man From Waco.
The clips capture Crockett and his band, the Blue Drifters, hard at work recording the record. The footage has a grainy, VHS-like feel, which fits the analog-style session depicted at Bruce Robison‘s studio in Austin, Texas.
The ballad shares its’ title with a Texas town, leaving listeners to wonder if it’s the name of the object of the narrator’s affection or if maybe “Odessa” is the place where they parted ways. In either case, Crockett sings of feeling lovesick and missing old times with an old flame.
Watch the official music video for “Odessa” below:
Released yesterday (Dec. 6), the video for “Odessa” arrives just ahead of Charley Crockett’s national television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! tomorrow, Dec. 8.
“I’m Just a Clown,” the lead single from The Man From Waco, has spent ten weeks at number one on the Americana radio albums chart.
