On Friday, Bailey Zimmerman marked the release of his album Different Night Same Rodeo with a desert-racing video for his new single “Lost,” featuring The Kid Laroi.
The playful video shows Zimmerman and The Kid Laroi leaning into their opposite lifestyles — Zimmerman behind the wheel of a Chevy SEMA truck, and Laroi cruising in the back of a black limousine in the middle of the desert. The two trade verses as Zimmerman does donuts around the limo, with the pop-country song soundtracking the scene.
“Where do I go from here? / ‘Cause baby I’m going nowhere fast,” sing Laroi and Zimmerman on the chorus. “‘Cause half of me disappeared / When those taillights didn’t turn back / Now I’m lost in the memory / Lost in the blue.”
Zimmerman and The Kid Laroi filmed the video in Nevada and spent the day together in Las Vegas before shooting. They walked the Vegas Strip and stopped to meet fans along the way. The video was shot in 105-degree heat, and they got custom license plates for both vehicles.
Zimmerman led Different Night Same Rodeo with songs such as “Backup Plan” featuring Luke Combs, “Holy Smokes,” and “New to Country.” The LP also includes a collab with Diplo and songs such as “When It Was” and “Everything But Up.”
“2 years of work, 18 songs, and a few dang good friends,” Zimmerman wrote about the album on Instagram Friday.
The singer announced the album while performing at CMA Fest’s Spotify House back in June. “For the last two years, I’ve been working really hard on my new album,” Zimmerman said at the time. “This album is something different… Everybody around me feels like it’s the album I’m supposed to put out.”
