Tomorrow, September 28th, Trace Adkins will be debuting the music video for his current hit, “All I Ask For Anymore,” on CMT and CMT.com
The video will then hit both GAC and CMT Pure on Tuesday, September 29, and was directed by by the award-winning team of Robert Deaton and George Flanigen of Deaton Flanigen Productions.
“All I Ask For Anymore” is a coming of age song about life’s priorities. It’s the third single from his album X, and was released to radio this past May.

CMT recently released their top 20 videos of 2008. Unsurprisingly it includes Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban and George Strait, with only Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift and Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland managing to break into the seemingly tight boys club this year!

I’m really looking forward to Trace Adkins’ upcoming single!
It’s titled “Muddy Water” and Trace says he’s had it in his head for a while but just hadn’t recorded it until now. It tells the story of a recovering bad boy who decides to make a fresh start and needs to be “baptized in that muddy water.”
It’ll be the first single released from his upcoming album which is scheduled to drop November 25th.
What do you think?
