The official music video for GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Lori McKenna’s new song, “Killing Me” feat. Hillary Lindsey, is debuting today. Directed by Derrick Javon, the video finds McKenna in a tender moment, as she addresses her younger self (played by actress Lauren Starr), supporting her as she searches for inner peace and happiness.
Reflecting on the video, Mckenna shares, “I wrote this song with Luke Laird and Hillary Lindsey, two of the greatest songwriters of all time. The idea started with a relationship and then reached into the thoughts we tell ourselves. That self-talk—that rattle in our heads usually with something negative to say. I loved the idea of the joyful side of my mind telling the constant critic in there to just hush. Just hush. When it was time for Derrick Javon to bring it all to life he imagined me confronting my younger self with all this. Another layer. Beautifully shot and directed by Derrick and his team and so honestly, joyfully and emotionally executed by Lauren Starr. It was a thrill to watch this group of creators breathe so many new layers into this lyric. I’m so excited to share this video with you.
