Little Big Townjust released the video for their latest single, the title track of their album Tornado. The clip is something a little different for them – a tale of revenge that’s a bit dark and haunting, just like the song itself. “It’s kinda creepy,” says LBT’s Karen Fairchild. Bandmate Phillip Sweet agrees. “A darker tone, and we ARE the tornado coming through the town,” he says.

Their buddy, actor Jonathan Schaech (That Thing You Do!, The Sweetest Thing), stars as the “bad guy” in the music video. “He’s such a nice guy, and he plays such a mean guy in this video,” says Karen. “He’s mean and hot at the same time, kinda like Phillip and Jimi. [Jimi laughs] No. They’re sweet and hot.”

The new CMA Vocal Group of the Year is set to launch their Tornado tour January 31st in Murray, Kentucky.
