Last week Saints Eleven, the Red Dirt Country band from Denton, Texas, released the music video for their current single “My Heart.” Produced by Natalie Riggs, the simple yet brilliant performance video was filmed at the historic Coupland Dance Hall in Coupland, TX. Simple in that the video shows the essence of the band, with no distracting plot or twists; brilliant in that it allows the listener to pay attention to the song’s heartfelt lyrics, vocal talent and musicianship of the band members.
Frontman Jeff Grossman had the following to say about the song as well as the production of the video:
“My Heart” is about my three most important times in my life as man. Being a father, being a husband and being a son. No matter what has happened or is happening around me, my son, my wife and my parents are my biggest inspirations. The first part of the song talks about being there for your young child, as a father, to guide them as they grow up and to let them know they can always count on you. The second part of the tune is about being a devoted husband and being in love with the woman of your dreams for the rest of your life. The third and final part is about being the man that your parents raised you to be and taking care of them at the end, as they did for you in the beginning. We wanted to make a simple music video in a cool setting and we couldn’t have picked a better person to produce it. Natalie Riggs nailed it! She chose the historic Coupland Dance Hall in Coupland Texas. I knew it was going to be good when we walked in the door. It’s nice and simple. It just fits the song.”

“My Heart” is off of Saint Eleven’s latest album Coming Back Around. Released January 2017 and produced by Walt Wilkins, Coming Back Around is a cathartic project featuring the band’s mixture of Country, Americana, Blues, Bluegrass and Rock through songs that represent “a trek through an Americana landscape; waltzing across blue valleys of sorrow, strutting over familiar plains of adversity and two-stepping over mountain peaks of resolve.”
