Nashville based artist Andrew Combs has shared the video for his latest single, 'Dry Eyes', which premiered with Rolling Stone Country. The release comes ahead of a string of European tour dates, including a show at London's The Lexington on December 10th.
Shot in black and white, the video is an evocative and atmospheric portrayal of relationships and loss, featuring surreal metaphors of intimacy and enmity. The video follows the release of Combs' fourth album, Ideal Man, which was released in September to widespread acclaim. "'Dry Eyes' is the only classic 'you did me wrong' relationship song on this new record," explains Combs. "I wrote it with my pal Burton Collins, who is a great lyricist here in Nashville. It's about a former bride who did not know how to show any emotions, even in the face of a dissolving relationship. The narrator is trying to make sense of someone so callous, while at the same time trying to erase them from their own memory." 'Dry Eyes' follows previous releases 'Stars Of Longing', 'Save Somebody Else' and 'Born Without A Clue'. The songwriting for Ideal Man was partly inspired by Comb's recent fascination with painting. He started painting when his wife was pregnant (they welcomed a daughter in 2017).
