Dierks Bentley pays tribute to some inspiring women in his latest music video, the Floyd Family, a real-life mother-daughter duo from Nashville, Tennessee.

Sydnee Floyd was born with PFAPA, a syndrome that results in fevers and sore throats, and EDS, a condition that affects the connective tissue in her body. Together with her single mom, Jennifer, they have overcome the odds and embraced a motto of “Always give your life’s pennies away” by giving back in any way they can.
The Floyds have raised money for cancer research, prepared meals at homeless shelters, wrapped gifts for people in need, and distributed socks, shoes and backpacks filled with school supplies for elementary school students.
“Jennifer and Sydnee make everyone around them want to do more, to be better…it was an incredible honor for me to honor them,” Bentley said in a statement. “I hope that by shining a light on the completely selfless volunteer work they do, it will maybe inspire other folks to do what they can in their own communities. I was really drawn to their real-life experience, and I wanted to do a video based on real people with real struggles and real triumphs. These are the people I get to meet every day, and they are really the ones who have inspired this music.”
