Carrie Underwood Unveils Album Cover & Releases New Video "Smoke Break"
After scoring a #1 hit on both the Christian and country charts with "Something in the Water," Carrie Underwood is back with her new album and single. She has recently unveiled the picture of her new album cover "The Storyteller" (see above). And she has also released her new video to her lead single "Smoke Break."
"Smoke Break," is an anthem to the hard-working people around the world who could sometimes use a break from life's craziness -- and the video for the song is no different.
The song itself is one of those story songs I feel like everybody can relate to, about how life is so hectic," Underwood explains. "And it's so nice when - if and when - you actually get to step away for a second. We all need that, and we all need that time to ourselves and to get to take a break."
"Smoke Break" was written by Underwood with Hillary Lindsey and Chris DeStefano, and it was produced by Jay Joyce. A preview of the song is available on Underwood's website, and it dropped to country radio during her Facebook chat.
The singer responded to a fan's question about "Smoke Break" during her chat, writing, "We were writing and kept taking breaks to go outside because we were getting a little stuck on a song we were already working on. It was so beautiful outside that we had a hard time focusing, so we decided to write a song about taking breaks! "Smoke Break" seemed like a great title, so we ran with it!"
The video shows Underwood driving around the desert in an old pickup truck, the video glimpses back and forth to a diner, featuring a hardworking barista and a white-collar patron who both look like they have had a long week. When the truck breaks down, she joins the "I need a break" club as she is forced to hitchhike with her guitar.
"Smoke Break" is the first single off Underwood's upcoming album, Storyteller, which will hit stores Oct. 23. Watch the video for the song below.
