You&#8217;ve got John and his buddies taking their antique Buick away out of Austin&#8217;s suburbs and across the open fields &#8211; out on a roadtrip. Shot with a filter which gives the video a 60s feel, and apart from John and his band, they&#8217;re all dressed the part as well. The video was shot in a real Austin institution, Riley&#8217;s, the first bar in Texas to sell alcohol after the repeal of prohibition, but the building itself is far older than that. It&#8217;s the perfect setting for &#8216;Roll Like That&#8217; &#8211; you&#8217;d expect to see Gaar and his band playing in there on any night of the week.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The concert footage in the clip was shot at yet another Austin historic hotspot. The Saxon Pub, in South Austin, is a 30 year old club, whch has a classic look, and a dedicated clientele. This is Gaar&#8217;s local, he&#8217;s a regular at the pub, and it shows. The stage is filled with guitarists, percussionists, backing vocalists &#8211; and even a full horn section. It should come as no surprise that both the band and the audience are having a blast &#8211; and isn&#8217;t that how it should be?<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find John Gaar online on his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.JohnGaar.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Facebook.com\/JohnGaarMusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Twitter.com\/JohnGaar1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and Instagram.<\/div>\n<div class=\"yj6qo ajU\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_63875\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IYmg_hezg2I?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"John Gaar &quot;Roll Like That&quot; OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/IYmg_hezg2I\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Louisiana native John Gaar was born for Southern music, and it translates well to his adopted hometown of Austin, Texas.
