Midland – Longneck Way to Go ft. Jon Pardi (2022)
Directed by: Harper Smith
Longneck Way to Go is a collaboration between American country band Midland and neotraditional country artist Jon Pardi. The song was released on April 22, 2022, as the second single from Midland’s third studio album, *The Last Resort: Greetings From*, and is also featured on Pardi’s fourth album, *Mr. Saturday Night*. Co-written by Midland members Jess Carson, Cameron Duddy, and Mark Wystrach, along with Rhett Akins and Ashley Gorley, the track delves into themes of heartbreak and the solace found in a barroom setting. The music video, directed by Harper Smith, was filmed at Nashville’s Eastside Bowl and captures a lively party atmosphere, aligning with the song’s narrative of seeking comfort in camaraderie and drinks. The video was nominated for Collaborative Video of the Year at the 2023 CMT Music Awards.
