Southern Comfort returns to local advertising with a compulsive body popper
‘whatever’s comfortable’
Naked Communications has launched the first local campaign for Brown Forman Australian liqueur brand Southern Comfort in over a decade.
The ad features a man who can’t stop body popping, a form of dance, with the tagline ‘whatever’s comfortable.’
Tim Kirby, business lead at Naked Communications, said: “The new positioning for Southern Comfort is refreshingly honest. Our challenge was to change people’s behaviour from just following the herd to having the confidence to just rock their thing, no matter what that ‘thing’ is. The stories we’re telling in this campaign show people that bring that attitude to life.”
The execution will run across both TV and cinema, and is supported by print, online, digital and social media.

why would Naked use TV? Isn’t TV dead in the water?

US spin by W+K on the new positioning is better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygeWsoYYMuQ
Has various layers of ‘cool’. Struggle to find this is body popping.
