City Lights Coverage | Mo Lowda & the Humble - Card Shark (Music Video)


You recently released a music video for “Card Shark.” Where did the concept for this song come from?

I went on a graduation trip to Vegas with my core group of friends after college in 2014.  We were pretty much all broke and were really only playing $5 tables but even so, I saw how easily someone could get hooked on gambling.  You win one hand and you think you're never gonna lose again... you lose a bunch in a row and you think "well this shit has got to turn around right?"   I wrote that tune on the plane ride home and tried to put myself in the shoes of a man who is addicted to gambling and it ends up tearing his family apart... hence the plot of the video.
