Julia Capogrossi is finally showing the world the visual for her song “Busch Light Budget” and CS Country has the exclusive premiere!
“I started writing ‘Busch Light Budget’ after going to the grocery store with my friends to get drinks! There was all this fancy stuff that we wanted, but we ended up getting cheap stuff because it’s what we were able to afford. But it didn’t matter at all! We had an amazing night because we were with each other. My friends and I love to make the most out of what we have and that’s exactly what this song is all about,” Capogrossi told CS Country.
About the video, Julia added, “It was such a great experience! What a long day of filming and doing the same scenes several times, but it was so much fun. The director, Joshua Lockhart, is so fun and crazy…just like me. haha! I got to meet so many people and had an amazing day with my team.”
“Busch Light Budget” has been getting some positive feedback so far, as it is currently getting airplay on country radio and climbing the Music Row Country Breakout Chart. Julia is also gearing up to pack her bags and head 5,000 miles south next month as she holds the coveted spot of the sole American entertainer at the San Pedro Country Music Festival held in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
