Will anyone recognise this description of a video and song?

I think that this song was within the last 15 years. I remember it on a Youtube video.
The singer is a white man in his 20s(?)
The song is about a young man revisiting his home - a place of abuse for him(?) and his mother(?) at the hands of a (step)father.

The video was of the singer outside the rustic home.

I have searched Google and can find nothing. Driving myself crazy!
Are there any musical savants out there in MN land?

For some reason this is making me think of 7 Years by Lukas Graham, but I don't think that's the storyline of the song. Thought I'd put it out there just in case!

Cherry Wine by Hozier?

This could be helpful....

Neither Hozier nor Lukas! The genre of Hozier is similar though.

Clutching at straws here but is it 'No son of mine' by Genesis?

rosegoldwatcher · 08/08/2020 19:12

Absolutely not Genesis.

Thanks to all posters for trying to help.

Ryan Tedder?

holyshitdude · 08/08/2020 19:20

Tim McGraw?

rosegoldwatcher · 08/08/2020 19:20

Not Ryan.

Most of the suggested are far more handsome than my unremembered singer!

I think he was playing a guitar in the video.

Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam did a few solos songs a few years ago. Maybe him?

Travis.. blue flashing light? I hope someone gets this!

Take me to church?

Beardy American singer who plays guitar - could be Ray LaMontagne.

MiaFarrowsWheelbarrow · 08/08/2020 19:34

Richard Marks?

James Arthur? Not American but he did a song like that where he went back to his family home in Middlesbrough and he plays guitar.

LittleMissNaice · 08/08/2020 19:44

Jake Bugg?

TotheletterofthelawTHELETTER · 08/08/2020 19:45

Just googled, it’s called Quite Miss Home. He’s beardy and a bit chubby like you said.
Lyrics aren’t about abuse but it’s a sad song about missing home

rosegoldwatcher · 08/08/2020 19:46

None of those. Sorry!

Ooh - he's nice! Not the one though.

Song was not at all cheesy.

Stained - it's been a while

rosegoldwatcher · 08/08/2020 20:24

Goats - no, none of them.

Not Staind either.
