Kenny Chesney's new music video for "Flora-Bama" features a Southern treasure: the Flora-Bama Lounge and Package in Perdido Key, Florida. "This place is so many things to so many people," Chesney said, via The Boot. "It has been for a long time because they've shared life here. Friendships were born here. Relationships were born here. Every place you look, there's 50 years of memories. Lovers have written their names on the wall, they've declared their love for each other on the wall of this place." The video includes live clips from Chesney's free August show at the Lounge and Package. "That kind of stuff lives forever in the thread, in the heart and the soul of a place like this," he continues. "I feel like the people that come to this bar really do represent my audience and everything that we've built No Shoe Nation to be."

"I didn't have nearly the success Cole and Chase are enjoying right now, but I know the difference getting your music in front of an audience makes. For both of these guys, who have a lot of energy and a real way of grabbing people, I think it's the perfect way to get the audience fired up for the show."
