Rising country star Shaboozey has unveiled the official music video for his latest single, “Highway,” from his debut album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, released earlier this year through American Dogwood/Empire. The album has already earned RIAA gold certification, highlighting Shaboozey’s growing impact on the independent music scene.
“Highway” is a poignant ballad showcasing Shaboozey’s signature baritone vocals paired with Western-style acoustic guitar melodies and rich backup harmonies. The music video features stunning visuals that depict Shaboozey’s emotional journey through darkness following a heartbreaking breakup. As he travels through charming small towns, picturesque meadows, rural landscapes, and vibrant carnivals, he reflects on his struggles with the lyrics, “Since you stopped riding shotgun I ain’t been myself, went out looking for a good time but I’m going through hell, got Jesus on the hotlines saying you need help, liquor on the shelf, tell the devil farewell.”
Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going has made a significant mark on the Billboard 200 charts since its release. The Virginia-bred singer-songwriter takes listeners on a cinematic road trip through the American West, enriching his storytelling and deepening his exploration of the country and folk-inspired sound that has defined his recent work.
