In his new single “Middle of America,” singer-songwriter Will Hoge sings about characters that would not be out of place in a Bruce Springsteen or John Mellencamp song. From a girl getting a tattoo at a strip mall to a soldier returning from Iraq, they are “chasin’ these small town dreams” where “it’s just another night / In the middle of America.”
For the video, director Colin Noel goes Martin-Scorsese-Goodfellas style and presents the video in one take as Hoge travels around downtown Gallatin, Tennessee by foot and in a 1961 Chevrolet Impala. Check it out.
“Middle of America” will appear on Will Hoge’s as-yet-untitled upcoming CD in 2015.
