Acclaimed Singer-Songwriter Co-Directed And Stars In Vibrant, Vintage-Inspired Video
Performing Monday (1/15) On NBC’s Late Night With Seth Meyers
Before “Reasons” Hits Country Radio Airwaves (1/22)
Nashville, Tenn. – JILLIAN JACQUELINE’s debut single “Reasons” colorfully comes to life today (1/12), with the official music video making its world premiere on Refinery29 as part of the platform’s “The Drop” series which shines a spotlight on women artists. The video is also available across Vevo beginning at 12:00 p.m. CT today and will go into rotation on CMT Wednesday (1/17).
“I wanted the video to be an extension of the song and also give new life to it and make it feel a little bit tongue-in-cheek and like we’re playing with it a little bit,” she tells Refinery29 exclusively. “Because in hindsight, looking at it now, I realize there can be a sense of humor in realizing that you’re tiptoeing around the truth with someone and turning into roommates.”
Directed by Patrick Tracy and Jacqueline, the video features vintage-hued vignettes playing out the narrative of the raw, relatable lyrics. Starring as herself in the clip, the up-and-coming artist stuns in her signature retro style.
