A few Delco natives are making their way to the CMT (Country Music
Television) Music Awards on June 8 after earning a pair of nominations for a music
video they directed and produced.
Interboro High School alumni Steve Condon, Danielle Porter-Condon and
Steve Molineux are nominated for breakthrough video of the year and group/duo
video of the year for Old Dominion’s first major single “Break up With Him,” a
video produced through their Nashville-based production company The 10:10
Creative.
“It’s incredible,” said Steve Condon, regularly known as
Director Steve, about his first major nomination for his music video work. “This
is the band’s first major video, it’s pretty great to know that this is just (Old
Dominion and I’s) first shot and it’s up for two.”
Condon and Old Dominion’s love for the 80’s comedy/sci-fi blockbuster “Back to the Future” was the inspiration for the video. Old
Dominion lead singer Matthew Ramsey serenades his love interest as she is stuck
dancing with a Biff-like character at a dance reminiscent of the film's iconic enchantment under the sea high school gala (renamed entanglement above the heart dance for the video). Ramsey eventually gets his girl as, err, "drive" off to a life of happiness, and in a DeLorean, no less.
