People Gonna Talk - New Music Video!

People gonna talk, just let 'em 

You gotta keep your head up and forget 'em 

They talk about you cuz they got nothing else to do 

Except to tell somebody some made up story that's all about you 

Holler just premiered the new music video for our new country-folk meets 60s pop-rock song "People Gonna Talk" 

“People Gonna Talk” is a song about the kind of frustrations that small town living can create, presented in a weird ball of joy (if that's not Bill and the Belles in a nutshell...). In contrast to the sassy lyrics, we decided to celebrate small town life in the music video, because for all its challenges, living in smaller places can have a lot of perks too. 

One of the biggest is how rich in character these places can be, and we had no shortage of character on hand for this music video! Celebrated artists and local legends Eugene Wolfe, Christine Murdock, and Ed Snodderly were generous enough to revive their former band, Mehitabel and the What’s Their Name Brothers, for an afternoon lipsync session at a great local dive, Nappy’s Bar. 

These folks truly embody part of what we love about life in Johnson City, and we were fortunate that they were so willing to get ridiculous with us. We give you a music video that’s a little John Waters, a little local Friday night talent show, and a lot Bill and the Belles.
