(Nashville, Tenn. – July 16, 2013) Country music newcomer Ryan Weaver has released his debut music video for his single, “Crank It.” The track is a rowdy country tune, co-written by Weaver with songwriters Kevin Ray and Brian Eckert. The song is an up-tempo salute to a woman who turns heads with her carefree, independent attitude and her ability to shock the establishment.
The video, which was directed by Patrick Tohill and features former Mötley Crüe lead singer, John Corabi, premiered on The Nashville Network’s (TNN) Top 10 show recently. Following the world premiere, AristoVideo Promotions made the clip available to a panel of national, syndicated, closed circuit, Internet and regional outlets.
“Filming the video was an incredible experience,” said Weaver. “All of the people in the video are very important to me. I have a relationship with everyone involved, so being on set felt like a big party with my family and friends.”

The small-town Florida native jumped into the music scene after a chance meeting with hit songwriter Jeffrey Steele in Fort Rucker, Alabama. Steele soon became what Weaver calls, his musical mentor. Steele is credited for producing three of his songs on his forthcoming release.
“Ryan’s got a story to tell, a mission to accomplish and a passion for his music that can’t be denied. And wont be,” said Jeffrey Steele.
Weaver is a high energy, all-American, rockin’ Country music artist who served as an active duty Blackhawk Helicopter Pilot, Chief Warrant Officer 3, in the U. S. Army. He credits his musical inspiration and motivation to his older brother, Aaron, who passed away after the Medevac helicopter he was a passenger in, was shot down when both Ryan and Aaron were deployed in Iraq. “I haven’t followed the normal path of a country music artist, and it would be fair to say the path found me. This country is the greatest country in the world, because you are free to chase your dreams no matter where you came from. With hard work, dedication, support from family, friends and fans and a little God given talent, you can accomplish anything.” Weaver explains. “It makes me proud knowing what went in to getting to this point, and I know the sky is the limit.”
Weaver is currently writing and recording the final songs for his forthcoming album on WCB Records, which is scheduled for release later this year.
“Crank It,” the single, is now available on iTunes and Amazon.
