Kassi Ashton Drops 'Dates in Pickup Trucks' Official Music Video

With a little bit of rock, a hell of a lot of soul, and a throwback R&B groove, Kassi Ashton has crash landed on country radio with her latest song and radio debut, "Dates In Pickup Trucks." In the official music video, out today, Kassi turns up the heat and the devilry as she sings, "find a little trouble we can get into..." Set in a deserted lot in a nowhere town, Kassi assembles her cast of characters in this backwoods fight club meets pirate radio airwaves takeover.

"I love when a video adds to the context or changes the perspective of a song," says Kassi. "Why just show a date in a pickup truck when we could create so much more for the viewer to lose themselves in?"

Written by Kassi with David Garcia and Luke Laird, "Dates In Pickup Trucks" "feels as refreshing as the cold beer she's looking for in the opening lines," according to Taste of Country. Billboard notes, "Ashton brings her signature husky, sultry voice to this track that meshes R&B influences with steel guitar, making it the perfect weekend jam."
