They will have a sneak peek from the shoot today (March 4) on E! News prior to the premiere. Shot in Los Angeles last month and directed by Peter Zavadil, E!’s Marc Malkin sat down with the band and took fans behind the scenes of Lady A’s Hillary Scott and 2 Broke Girls star Beth Behrs’ mischievous night out on the town.

“This is definitely the most fun we’ve ever had shooting a video,” said Scott. “Beth was sweet enough to agree to help out for this video. It’s not often I have a partner in crime to help me stir up a little trouble for Dave and Charles!”
