Country-pop rising star Andrew Mitch just dropped the official music video for his fan-favourite track “Back Home Boy,” and it’s as heartfelt and golden-hued as the story behind it. Set against the backroads of Tennessee, this video captures the warmth and simplicity of small-town love — no fancy edits, just feelings.
🎥 A Backroad Story Told in Sunlight
Directed and produced by Chad Neville, the video was shot on farmland just outside of Nashville. It features wide open roads, fences, and a vintage truck, echoing the rootsy visuals that inspired Andrew’s lyrics.
“I wanted to capture that very simple ‘back home’ feeling: out in the country, riding in a truck, wind blowing while the sun shines. It felt like how I grew up,”
— Andrew Mitch
Shot in under two hours on a spring evening (yes, really), the video came together almost by accident. Andrew and Chad were catching up over coffee when the idea sparked — a few hours, a borrowed truck, and a weather miracle later, they had their shoot.
“It was pouring rain earlier that day, but the sun came out just in time. That’s just how Nashville works sometimes.”
The road featured in the video even mirrors the one near Andrew’s childhood home in Ohio — a small detail that adds to the emotional weight of the visual.
🎙 Meet Andrew Mitch: Redefining Country from the Inside
Andrew Mitch is part of a growing movement redefining what country music can look and sound like. Raised in Steubenville, Ohio, Andrew learned guitar and vocals from his family and church, and later began writing songs in his bedroom while studying biochemistry — which he eventually left behind to pursue music full-time in Nashville.
A proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, Andrew is making waves with his honest and emotionally raw lyrics. His breakout single “all in my head” tackled themes of unrequited love and identity with stunning vulnerability.
“I know that it’s all in my head / ‘Cause they’ll just wish you were a girl instead.”
That song landed on the iTunes Country Chart, gained hundreds of thousands of streams, and helped Andrew crowdfund his debut project, feeling outside the lines.

With nearly 30,000 followers and over 2 million social media views, Andrew is quickly becoming a recognizable voice in country music — not just for his talent, but for his fearless authenticity.
