Sometimes what you see in a music video is all smoke and mirrors, an illusion of fun carefully crafted to make it seem like the artists are living it up and having a killer time together. Then there’s Post Malone and Blake Shelton‘s “Pour Me a Drink.”

The clip for the song from Posty’s upcoming country debut album, F-1 Trillion (August 16) has a silly, simple premise: a couple of good ol’ boys meet at a convenience store and then decide to hang together at a party in the woods with a bunch of their best-looking friends to have some brews, smokes and strum a tune on the back of a pick-up truck.

It’s all in good fun, and now thanks to a behind-the-scenes video posted by Shelton on Wednesday (July 31) we have a better sense of just how much of a blast the shoot was. In the 30-second clip captioned, “Y’all know who it goes [beer stein emoji] @postmalone,” Shelton is seen singing the chorus into the lens of a camera on a dolly as it follows him across the field. Malone bops around in the background with his ubiquitous red Solo cup and camo baseball hat in hand. By the end, the two men are lip synching together and busting out some impromptu boot scooting dance moves as Shelton smiles at Posty’s loose vibe.

The b-roll comes more than a month after Posty posted a clip of the two men strumming the song on acoustic guitars in a woody setting near a lake that appears to be the location shoot for the finished video. It also came on the same day that Malone finally announced the full 18-song tracklist for the eagerly anticipated F-1 Trillion, which will feature songs with previously known acts Morgan Allen, Blake Shelton, Hardy and Luke Combs, as well as Tim McGraw, Hank Williams Jr., Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, Chris Stapleton, Billy Strings, Ernest and others.

Taylor Swift dominates headlines this week with her new album The Life of a Showgirl, but there are more new releases worth your attention as well.

Amy Millan has found indie rock acclaim via Stars and Broken Social Scene. She released her first solo album in over 16 years, I Went To Find You, back in the spring, to enthusiastic response. This week, she put out I Went To Find You (Redux), a four-track add-on EP comprising fresh takes on four of the original album's singles. These are described as having an autumnal vibe, "with a contextual, sonic vibe closely associated with Millan's first two albums, Honey From the Tombs (2006), and Masters of The Burial (2009)." The new cuts feature guest members of Bahamas and Zeus on various instruments, vocals, and production. Millan began a solo North American tour this week, and it will feature shows in Montreal, Ottawa, Lake County, B.C. and Vancouver.
