Canaan Smith may not be a weatherman, but I sure like where his forecast is going.<\/p>\n

According to Smith, it looks like we\u2019re heading into the second half of summer with the perfect balance of sunshine and cold ones in his \u201cBeer Drinkin\u2019 Weather.\u201d The song is Smith\u2019s first release as the flagship artist on Round Here Records, the label started by Florida Georgia Line\u2019s Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley.<\/p>\n

Smith co-wrote the new tune with Hubbard, Kelley and Corey Crowder. The video directors were Thomas Heney and Adam Romaine, and it was shot all over Holmdel, NJ, Mansfield, MA and Camden, NJ when Smith and Florida Georgia Line were out on their Can\u2019t Say I Ain\u2019t Country tour.<\/p>\n

While the brand new party anthem speaks for itself, CMT.com had a chance to get Smith\u2019s quick take on everything he digs about the video.<\/p>\n

CMT.com: What do you remember most about the days you shot this video?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Smith: I remember it was raining on and off the first day of filming, and we almost had to scratch the tailgate scene. But, just like the song says \u2014 \u2018it\u2019s goin\u2019 down rain or shine \u2014 so we threw on some ponchos and did the dang thang!<\/p>\n

How does the video bring your song to life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The video captures the rowdy spirit of the song so authentically. Country music fans show up thirsty, so we didn\u2019t have to twist any arms out there. I love how the lyrics come to life through drinking games and bus hangs.<\/p>\n

What message do you hope your fans take away from the video?<\/strong><\/p>\n

That it\u2019s ALWAYS \u201cBeer Drinkin\u2019 Weather\u201d out here!<\/p>\n

How did it feel to see the finished product for the first time?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not gonna lie. It made me wanna crush some beers!<\/p>\n


Here are some behind-the-scenes pictures from the shoot:<\/em><\/p>\n
