in this very special Tuesday edition of Music Video Monday, we have country artist Bryan Hayes with his new video for “I Wanna Run”.
Hayes says the song was written to help keep himself sane while he was in some trying circumstances. “There was a two-year window in 2009 and 2010 when I was deployed to Iraq and I had to put the guitar in the closet,” he says. “I was either at Fort Benning Georgia training or in Iraq. As the military tour started winding down, I picked up the guitar again in Mosul, Iraq and started writing again and reconnecting with music and how much I love and missed songwriting.”
The video is produced by Archer Malmo’s John Markham and directed by Bart Shannon. The editor is Music Video Monday alum Andrew Trent Fleming.
