PREMIERES THE OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR
HIS NEW SINGLE ‘CHEAP SHOTS’

UK & EUROPEAN TOUR STARTS JUNE 4TH
 
Richie Kotzen has premiered the official video for his hard driving new single ‘Cheap Shots’. The video was directed and choreographed by Emmy Award winner Jeff Wolfe and, like the single, pulls no punches and delivers knockout hooks throughout. ‘Cheap Shots’ is part of his full-length solo album to be released later in the year.


 
“The video was directed by my good friend Jeff Wolfe who had a visual concept after hearing the song,” explains Kotzen. “In addition to being a talented director he is also an accomplished actor and stuntman, so he had the eye for bringing those boxing scenes together. Although the song isn’t about boxing per se,” Kotzen continues, “I thought it was a good visual to go along with the idea of someone constantly taking what we may call ‘cheap shots’ in order to bring you down.”
