Content edit
Tyler Childers wrote the song "In Your Love" in 2023 with Geno Seale. It is the first single from Childers's album Rustin' in the Rain, released on September 8.[1]
The song's corresponding music video was written by poet Silas House and directed by Bryan Schlam. This video received significant media attention upon release, due to it portraying a relationship between two gay male coal miners in 1950s Kentucky. Childers told National Public Radio (NPR) interviewer Ann Powers that he was inspired to include gay themes in the video because of a gay cousin whom he considered a musical mentor. Actors Colton Haynes and James Scully portray the couple in the video.[2] The video features Haynes and Scully's characters developing a relationship before Scully's character dies of black lung disease at the end.[3]
