Multi-award winning singer and songwriter Brian McKnight has released touching and emotional visuals for his new single, ‘Nobody’, which boasts footage from his own wedding ceremony.
Take a moment to listen to Nobody or watch the amazing video below:
"Nobody" was written by Brian McKnight and produced by Earl Cohen, Chris Paultre and Claude Villani and is available now via all platforms. "Nobody" is lifted from Brian's upcoming 20th studio album, "EXODUS", scheduled for release on June 26th, via the SRG ILS Group/UMG label imprint.
As shared with Billboard.comregarding the inspiration behind the video, Brian shares, “The funny thing is that we were trying to decide on a concept for the video, and after brainstorming, it was becoming too much of a process. Then suddenly the idea came to use our wedding footage because we hadn’t shared any of that footage with anyone. We thought what more of a special way to show our celebration and make it part of this beautiful song written for my wife.”
“This song was inspired by my wife Leilani and It’s about the incredible love we share as have been all the songs I've written since we've been together,” McKnight says. “’Nobody’ is perfect for right now at a time when real true love seems to be missing in music and in most aspects of society. It’s the best song I've written in a long time."
