NASHVILLE – December 20, 2006 – CMT will air “Last Dollar,” the newest video from superstar Tim McGraw, as the first played video of 2007, airing on Monday, Jan. 1, 2007 at 6:00 a.m., ET. The television premiere will follow the online premiere at CMT.com at 12:01 a.m., ET, on Monday, Jan. 1.
“Last Dollar” was derived from behind-the-scenes and other footage shot during the “Soul 2 Soul II” tour in 2006 and is produced and directed by longtime friend Sherman Halsey, who has produced 21 of McGraw’s 25 music videos and on tour by video director Jeff Johnson. The live performance video is a continual flow of imagery of McGraw entertaining thousands of fans at sold out venues plus behind the scenes happenings, including a few quick looks at a Bread & Water benefit show from earlier this year. The video also contains special effects and super stylized frames giving fans an artistic touch on the standard behind the scenes fare. The video will feature a special surprise ending.
“Last Dollar” will be the debut single from McGraw’s forth coming new studio album, due out in early 2007.
