Today award-winning duo Nice Horse is partnering with Canada's most followed entertainment brand on social media — MuchMusic — on the exclusive premiere of their official video for “Running Out of Reasons.”

Filmed over two days at the Kimes Ranch, the video was shot by CCMA Award-winning videographer Travis Nesbitt. Capturing the cinematic beauty of rural Scottsdale's countryside, the three-minute short film features band members Brandi Sidoryk and Katie Rox as its main characters, demonstrating the power friendship and connection can have in helping people manoeuvre through challenging situations.

One of the most buzzed-about acts in the Canadian country music industry, Nice Horse has played high-profile festivals across Canada including Boots & Hearts, Cavendish Beach Music Festival and the Calgary Stampede. About to open for Jo Dee Messina, the award-winning duo recently performed the national anthem at the MLB All-Star Game in Arlington, Texas and have toured as direct support for legendary artists such as Tom Cochrane and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. They have 10 Country Music Alberta Award wins, 2 Canadian Country Music Awards (Video of the Year, Bass Player of the Year) and 2 Western Canadian Music Awards (Country Artist of the Year) to their name and are currently playing the summer festival circuit.
