Brad Paisley is following in Beyoncé's footsteps

Brad Paisley is following in Beyoncé's footsteps and releasing a visual album!Brad took to Twitter to share the news announcing the first ever country music visual album available on Apple Music April 28th. #LoveandWar

Beyoncé's fifth studio album 'Lemonade' was also a visual album. 

Brad sat down with Variety to share his thoughts on having coutnry's first visual album. Read the full interview HERE.

Seeing as very few visual collections — where every song on an  album has an accompanying conceptual video — exist, were you inspired by  Beyoncé’s video album? 
I didn’t see all of “Lemonade,” but I loved what I saw. Obviously my  take on this is a completely different thing. On the songs that lend  themselves to comedy, that’s what I’m doing, and the same with the more  poignant songs, because the first half of this record is really a lot  more upbeat than the second half. You know me. I live in the extremes.

Where Beyoncé was kind of aiming at telling a single story, you’re telling 16 stories.
I hope that “One Beer Can” cracks you up, and I hope to tug on the  emotions with the one-two punch of “Love and War,” with me and John  Fogerty on the deck of an aircraft carrier, which fades into “Today,” as  the soldiers come home. I hope that there’s not a dry eye watching  that… We had sort of one-line log lines for each of these. With “Heaven  South,” it was essentially “Truck through Franklin, a la (the Kentucky  Headhunters’ ‘80s video) ‘Keep Your Hands to Yourself’.” And for “Last  Time for Everything,” it was “Stranger Things and Knight Rider.” Next  thing you know, David Hasselhoff found out I was using the Knight Rider  car and said. “I’m around if you want me in it.” I said, well, yeah,  what time, where? You say where and when, we’re doing it. “Go to Bed  Early” was “pop-up concert in a Sleep Number store,” which was more fun  than you can imagine, and also terrifying for me. We had me in an  anti-gravity chamber for “Contact High.” In “One Beer Can,” that’s my  parents’ house. We cast 30 Belmont students [for a raucous high school  party scene]. I never did that to my mother — I never threw that party —  so it serves her right that finally at my age I’m trashing her house.  With a donkey.
