When it comes to making videos to promote one of their tours or creating several of the duos music videos over the years, just to give you an idea of some examples, Dan Smyers' extremely creative and longtime friend Patrick Tracy has been involved in different areas with many of the clips over the years. Stay tuned for future posts about those!
I am not 100% sure and could not find any details about the people who worked on it behind the scenes, but I think Tracy was one of the talented people involved in editing this "Dan + Shay - Where It All Began Tour 2015 (Trailer)" YouTube video that you can find at the end of my post.
The cinematic trailer opens with a shot of an empty venue with the stage lights going crazy, followed by a look at some of the crowds who attended the 2014 leg of the duos Where It All Began Tour. Next, Dan Smyers, Shay Mooney and their band are all seen putting their hands in during a pre-show ritual before hitting the stage. The guys are now putting their earpieces in and heading up the stairs to the stage.
In dramatic fashion as if you are watching a trailer for a motion picture, the title of the tour is put up on the screen one word at a time. You can hear a suspenseful sound made after each word comes up in the video.
Dan + Shay's drummer Andrew Cook appears, hitting his drums and their song "Somewhere Only We Know" begins to play in the background. Many exciting highlights from the 2014 edition of the tour are exhibited. Those are followed by all of the dates and cities where fans could see the guys on the 2015 leg of their first headlining tour, and ends with some cool shots of the duo, and a link to their website to purchase tickets.
I got the opportunity to see the duo on the first leg of the Where It All Began Tour in 2014, which also had an announcement video that I will profile in an upcoming post. I think it may be because I had not seen the 2015 tour trailer in 10+ years, but when I watched it today to write this post, it felt brand new to me, like I had not seen it before!
I am expecting Smyers and Mooney to announce their 2026 tour plans in the next few weeks. They have not done a trailer for a tour in many years, but I hope there will be one for this new tour! Based on how long we have been waiting for the new music and the tour news, I am guessing they have put something big together for the tour announcement. We will all have to wait and see, and I will share the new music and tour news with you as soon as it hits social media!
Here is the "Dan + Shay - Where It All Began Tour 2015 (Trailer)" YouTube video for you to enjoy courtesy of the duos YouTube channel!
