It was a really intense period of time\u2026 Obviously, writing the songs was a leap of faith because they\u2019re so vulnerable, but releasing them was actually more emotional for me because it was letting people in on such a private world. <\/p>\n<p>A lot of things came to the surface that week, so when we were filming, I felt like a raw nerve. The intention was not for there to be crying; it was just supposed to be a simple performance scene. We ended up keeping those in because they were the most authentic takes. I\u2019m so thankful that it was a small set with just the closest members of my team. I felt really safe and supported.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the video bring your song to life?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s so crazy because the video isn\u2019t a made up story line, or a reenactment \u2014 it\u2019s the real story. I\u2019ve never released a visual like this and it feels very special. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What message do you hope your fans take away from the video?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the most important message in this song is shedding the shame that comes with growing up in a broken and dysfunctional family. Everyone carries baggage but we are taught from such a young age to hide it. I want people to feel less alone and see that you can rise above. Where you come from does not define who you are. <\/p>\n<p><strong>How did it feel to see the finished product for the first time?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I remember sitting down and showing it to my Dad. It\u2019s so personal, I wanted to make sure my family was okay with me putting it out because it\u2019s their story too. He was so supportive. We definitely both cried. I hadn\u2019t seen any footage of me as a kid because we lost most of it in a fire, so it was really wild for me to see myself as a child for the first time. It really hit home for me to realize how small and innocent I was while all of these things in the song were happening around me.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em>Songwriters: Kalie Shorr &amp; Candi Carpenter; Directors: Quinton Cook &amp; Helena Capps<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmt.com\/news\/1817682\/kalie-shorr-reveals-her-escape-in-this-poignant-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: CMT News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by CMT.com Staff 41m ago Rather than looking back on her youth through rose-colored glasses, Kalie Shorr relied on home movies and her most challenging memories to share her life story in her new video, \u201cEscape.\u201d Shorr will resume her Too Much to Say Tour next week in Los Angeles, promoting her latest album, Open [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[159],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1318190","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-music-news"},"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-06-15 05:24:30","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"distributor_meta":false,"distributor_terms":false,"distributor_media":false,"distributor_original_site_name":"KSKE Ski Country","distributor_original_site_url":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske","push-errors":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1318190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1318190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1318190\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1318190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1318190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alwaysmountaintime.com\/kske\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1318190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
