Jon Pardi has shared the music video for his recently released hit single, “Friday Night Heartbreaker.”
Released as the lead single off his upcoming fifth studio album, the video for was directed by Jim Wright and shot in Nashville’s historic Printer’s Alley.
“I always enjoy filming with Jim Wright, even if it means being in Printer’s Alley until 2 AM,” says Pardi. “You really see some wild characters down there at that hour. One of my favorite parts of the shoot was chatting with the actors and actresses who performed the circus stunts—they were amazing! All I had to do was play guitar and drive a cool car while they were over there breathing fire and swallowing swords. It was awesome to watch it all come together!”
Pardi’s new era kicks off with the video, which you can check out below. Before embarking on the rollout for his fifth LP, Pardi wrapped his extensive “Mr. Saturday Night Tour” and completed a string of five Christmas shows, appropriately titled “The Christmas Show.”
The casino tour kicked off in Brooks, CA, then headed to Highland, CA, Tulsa, OK, and Norman, OK, before closing out in Mescalero, NM.
A portion of ticket sales benefitted the newly established Starlight Fund, founded by Jon and his wife Summer Pardi. The Starlight Fund supports organizations dedicated to providing opportunities and resources specific to young people in need that are pursuing a path in the trades, agriculture, and construction.
Pardi released his first Christmas album, Merry Christmas from Jon Pardi, in 2023.
