COWGIRL MAGAZINE: Exclusive Premiere: Sarahbeth Taite's 'First Rodeo' Music Video


By JILLIAN SINCLAIR



Are you ready, Cowgirls? We're giving you the exclusive first look at Sarahbeth Taite's brand new music video for her latest single, "First Rodeo." Produced by the legendary Nathan Chapman (the genius behind some of Taylor Swift's hits) and the talented Parker Welling, "First Rodeo" is set to steal hearts just as it did when it hit the airwaves on July 12.


Sarahbeth Taite has been capturing the essence of country music with her heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies, and "First Rodeo" is no exception. This single is the third release from her upcoming EP, "The Way We Started," debuting on August 23. Fans have already fallen in love with her previous hits from the EP "Pretty Good Living" and "Diamond And A Baby."


In a heartfelt note about the song's creation, Sarahbeth shared, "I remember when Grant (Vogel) came in with this idea for a write with Scott Stepakoff and me. I was extremely pregnant and about two weeks away from having my daughter. We only got the first verse and chorus down, but we all knew it was going to be a special song. You know it’s a good one when you come back to it six months later, and you’re all still excited about it."


"First Rodeo" takes a clever spin on the phrase "this ain't my first rodeo" by flipping it around and asking, "What was your first rodeo, then?" Through this creative lens, Sarahbeth and her co-writers, Scott Stepakoff and Grant Vogel, take listeners on a journey back to their first love – the kind that felt like it would last forever. With a beautifully simple production, "First Rodeo" captures the universal experience of young love and heartbreak, painting a vivid and nostalgic picture of those unforgettable moments.


Sarahbeth Taite has been on the rise since her breakout single, "Long Way," which racked up over 8 million streams and hit #1 on the all-genres iTunes chart. Her authentic connection with fans and her compelling storytelling have earned her a spot on the Billboard chart, as well as the unwavering support of industry icons like Bobby Bones. "Women of iHeartCountry" have also championed her music, featuring her last 10 songs on Amy Brown's show.


So check out the exclusive premiere of the "First Rodeo" music video right here! In this video, Sarahbeth's storytelling comes to life, taking you through the bittersweet memories of first love with a visual that complements the song's nostalgic feel.
