RYAN BINGHAM
SHARES OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO FOR ‘LET THE BIG DOG EAT‘
NEW ALBUM THEY CALL US THE LUCKY ONES RELEASED TO CRITICAL ACCLAIM
‘STILL GETTIN’ AWAY WITH IT TOUR’ UNDERWAY, PLUS NEW DATES WITH ZACH BRYAN
Acclaimed Oscar and Grammy-winning musician Ryan Bingham shares the official music video for his song, ‘Let The Big Dog Eat‘. Watch/share HERE.
Directed by Scott Ballew (Love Letter to Texas), the video was filmed earlier this spring during Bingham’s special album release show at The Long Time in Austin, TX. Set at the vintage sandlot field home to the Texas Playboys, the music video features young actor Josi Gonzalez and captures a full day centred around community and live music.
“There’s nothing funnier to me than seeing kids do adult things as parody on screen,” shares Ballew, “When Ryan sent me the final mix of ‘Let The Big Dogs Eat,’ my imagination went straight to some sort of satire where Sinners meets Little Rascals. What if a 9-year-old kid was the most dangerous Mississippi Delta blues hustler around? Without much of a plan and no storyboards, the narrative unfolded as naturally as it possibly could have: a mysterious out-of-town hustler comes through, upstages Ryan on guitar, makes a few bucks shootin’ dice and playing cards with the old timers, wins big on the dog race, hits a home run, and leaves a legend. I feel like the video was made much like how the album was made. With a very Sandlot kind of spirit—raw, unrehearsed, and alive. There’s a swagger to it that matches the lyrics, and an innocence that reflects the pure nature in which the songs were recorded.”
‘Let The Big Dog Eat’ is from Bingham’s acclaimed new album with The Texas Gentlemen, They Call Us The Lucky Ones. His first full-length project in over seven years, the album further cements Bingham as one of the most authentic and compelling voices in American music. Across the album’s 10 tracks, Bingham reflects on the highs and lows of an artist’s life on the road and his newfound sense of joy and hope, all framed by the unique genre-defying sound he and The Texas Gentlemen create together.
In celebration of the new music, Bingham recently returned to PBS’ legendary Austin City Limits, appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, performed songs from the new album on Turtlebox’s ‘Box Sessions Presents: Ryan Bingham,’ and spoke with Anthony Mason on CBS Mornings.
An electric live performer, Bingham is set to play newly confirmed stadium dates with Zach Bryan at San Diego’s Snapdragon Stadium (two nights), Salt Lake City’s Rice-Eccles Stadium, and Denver’s Empower Field at Mile High (two nights). Ahead of the new dates, Bingham will continue his ‘Still Gettin’ Away With It Tour‘, sponsored by Tecovas, Bingham’s Bourbon, Turtlebox and Yeti. Upcoming stops include Fayetteville’s Ozark Music Hall and Dallas’ Longhorn Backyard Amphitheater.
Bingham is a Grammy, Oscar, Golden Globe, and Critics’ Choice Award-winning singer-songwriter and actor whose raw, world-weary voice and evocative storytelling have made him one of the most distinctive artists of his generation. From his early years as a drifter and bull rider to penning ‘The Weary Kind’ for the film Crazy Heart, Bingham has built a career defined by authenticity and artistic independence. His music—spanning folk, blues, country, and rock—reflects a life fully lived, blending grit, vulnerability, and resilience in equal measure.
Across six studio albums, two live records, and his 2023 self-produced EP Watch Out For The Wolf, Bingham has remained committed to unfiltered, genre-defying storytelling, most recently captured in his live album Live at Red Rocks. In addition to his acclaimed music career, he starred as fan-favorite ‘Walker’ on Paramount’s record-breaking series Yellowstone. Beyond the stage and screen, Bingham has launched his own record label, founded the Fort Worth-based festival and rodeo, The Great Western, and introduced Bingham Spirits, beginning with Bingham’s Bourbon in 2024.
