ELLE KING AND DIERKS BENTLEY BRING THE WILD WEST TO NASHVILLE IN NEW “WORTH A SHOT” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO
WATCH HERE
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Elle King and Dierks Bentley debuted the official music video for their latest collaboration, “Worth A Shot,” today. Watch here.
The concept was created and written by King, who collaborated with directors Stephen Kinigopoulos and Alexa Stone (Running Bear Films). Filmed Murfreesboro, TN, the video flashes back to the Wild West in the late 1800s where King and Bentley star as husband-and-wife characters. With wanted signs, a liquor-filled saloon, and a shot for shot duel, the cinematic video is an unexpected take on the “highly engaging” (MusicRow) tune.
“Worth A Shot” is the second time King and Bentley have teamed up, following their Grammy-nominated, CMA Award winning, No. 1 hit “Different for Girls.” The song is the follow up to King’s smash single “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” with Miranda Lambert. The Grammy Nominated, certified Platinum hit reached #1 on both Billboard’s Country Airplay and Mediabase/Country Aircheck Charts. The #1 marked the first woman-woman collaboration to reach the top spot on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart since Reba McEntire and Linda Davis’ “Does He Love Me” in 1993 which was also the only one on the 1990 launched airplay chart.
Following her headline Drunk And I Don’t Wanna Go Home Tour, King is currently hitting the road with Chris Stapleton as part of his All American Roadshow Tour. For tickets and additional details, visit ElleKing.com.

“Elle King is a little bit country, a little bit rock n’ roll, but ultimately, she’s punk as fuck.” – Rolling Stone
“…King churned the clotted cream of punkish country, raw R&B, crotchety rock and deep blues into rich, buttery musical drama…(she) belted, crooned, purred, sauntered and swaggered her way through a tautly rocking set…one thing became very clear: nearly every song was equally contagious, catty-cool, and hit-worthy.” – Variety
