In 2012 Dean Brody, Great Big Sea (Alan Doyle, Bob Hallett and Sean McCann) plus a collection of Canadian and Newfoundland musicians came together for the making of a music video for the Dean Brody written song 'It's Friday'. The song was released on the 12 September, 2012 and reached 60 on the Canadian Hot 100. The music video was directed by Jeth Weinrich.
The music video for the song was filmed on a roof top in St. John's, Newfoundland. As news of the making of the music video spread throughout St. John's, locals gathered to watch and sing-a-long and were included in the filming as opportunities arose.
On the day Rob and Chantelle's wedding party happened to be travelling by, heard the music and stopped to watch the video shoot. Dean Brody and Great Big Sea came over and started to perform for the couple and their group. What a thrill for them, not only to be married in front of family and friends but also to be included in a Dean Brody and Great Big Sea music video.
The beautiful photographs of Rob and Chantelle's wedding and their appearance in the 'It's Friday' music video were taken by their photographer Colin Peddle for a testimony for his webpage. I have included one screen shot of Alan Doyle kissing the bride's hand and him and Dean Brody playing for the group.
I hope you enjoy this story and these photographs as much as I have and as always no copyright infringement intended. I have shared a copy of the 'It's Friday' music video on my Google + page. The music video has received over 1. 6 million views.
