Country superstar Jason Aldean explores this possibility in his brand-new video for single “Gonna Know We Were Here,” which allows fans a look at his real-life alma mater, Windsor Academy in Macon, Georgia.
“This song pretty much sums up how I feel like me and my fans live our lives. That same excitement is what we feel out there on the road every night, which made it a great name for next year’s tour. It was pretty cool that we could bring that vibe to the music video too by shooting it back to Macon with a ton of people from my hometown. Getting back there and on that high school football field really reminded me of that rush of just living life without any regrets.”-Jason Aldean

In the clip, Aldean swaps contemplative moments wandering his old school hallways with the excitement and rush of a high-school football game…as it turns out, a real one, as the video was shot during the school’s own homecoming event.
In addition to the video, Aldean announced his 2016 trek also named for the song, “The We Were Here Tour,” which will kick off on January 15th. Tickets for the 24-city stretch including special guests Thomas Rhett and A Thousand Horses begin to go on sale for select dates on Friday, October 23rd at JasonAldean.com and LiveNation.com.
