Ian Munsick recruited fellow Wyoming rapper Ryan Charles, along with Rocky Mountain Fever bandmates Peter Wilson (drummer), Tristan Smith (guitar player) and Jonathan Warren (fiddle player), for the official video treatment of his current radio single, “Love Is Blind,” out now. Watch BELOW..
“Love Is Blind” was written by Munsick, Ryan Tyndell and Jeremy Spillman, and is currently top 50 and climbing at Country radio. Munsick and Charles have been longtime friends and collaborators, dating back to Munsick’s 2022 release, “Cowboy Killers.” In the official music video, directed by Emma Golden and produced by Troy Jackson, Munsick stars as an eye doctor at Palomino Eyes clinic, treating Charles’ vision after a relationship gone awry.
“Optometrist was never on my bingo card of professions I thought I’d pose as, but here we are! ‘Love Is Blind’ has a playfulness to it that I knew we had to capitalize on when making this music video,” Munsick remarks. “Luckily, I had the perfect people in mind. My buddy Ryan Charles was the perfect protagonist for a heartbroken, hungover hero and Emma Golden was the natural pick to direct this work of cinema. Go watch the official music video to find out if love really is blind!”
“Love Is Blind” hails from Munsick’s fourth studio album, The Mountain Goat, arriving August 21 via WEST TO THE REST RECORDS / Triple Tigers Records. Spanning 15 tracks, The Mountain Goat was produced by Munsick, Jeremy Spillman and Mike Robinson. Pre-save HERE.

In total, Munsick is credited with playing nine different instruments: acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, banjo, harmonica, piano, bouzouki and kazoo, as well as lending background vocals and programming.
Munsick promises to deliver fans a memorable tour of the west with a series of shows during album release week, as well as the launch of his Schaefer Outfitter clothing line on August 18. As part of “The Road to The Mountain Goat,” Munsick’s official album release show will be held at Deer Valley Snow Park Outdoor Amphitheater in Park City, Utah on August 22 as part of the Deer Valley Concert Series.

About Ian Munsick:
As one of modern country’s few Rocky Mountain artists – and the only one to merge its timeless traditions with an electrifying roots-pop edge – Wyoming native Ian Munsick lives in the wild places few singer-songwriters go. Yet with his fourth album, The Mountain Goat, he climbs farther out on his creative ledge than ever. Marking his first independent album on WEST TO THE REST RECORDS / Triple Tigers Records, Munsick remains as sure footed as his project’s fearless namesake, thriving in the isolation of a Western-flavored modern country frontier. Racking up over one billion career streams with previous albums Coyote Cry, White Buffalo, and Eagle Feather, Munsick has produced one RIAA-Platinum duet “Long Live Cowgirls” (with Cody Johnson) – No. 1 on SiriusXM’s The Highway Hot 30 Countdown – plus two Gold-certified hits: “Long Haul” and “Horses Are Faster.” Spotify, CMT, and the Grand Ole Opry were among those to recognize Munsick’s vision, and concertgoers across the globe have found a Western authenticity that can’t be faked. Munsick made history in 2025, becoming the first Wyoming-born artist to headline Cheyenne Frontier Days – the iconic rodeo known as the “Daddy of ‘Em All” – and with The Mountain Goat, his quest to bring Western mystique to modern fans continues. Fusing genuine tradition with cutting-edge sonics, 15 tracks feature an “earthy” new organic undercurrent, with the multi-instrumental master more connected to his acoustic roots – and more protective of his territory.
