He's best known for playing the grumpy breakfast loving Ron Swanson on NBC's 'Parks and Recreation', but Nick Offerman has turned his hand to another profession: music video director. He's overseen the delightfully weird video for Tweedy's song, 'Low Key', which also features a host of celebrity cameos.

It's a different gig for the actor, usually seen in front of the camera

Tweedy is the latest project from Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy, comprised of himself and his son Spencer Tweedy. 'Low Key' is the first single from their first album, 'Sukierae', and the offbeat video shows them going door-to-door in attempts to sell their record to disinterested members of the public. Man of Steel actor Michael Shannon features as the assistant of the record label boss, whilst Melissa McCarthy, Conan O'Brien, Andy Richter and Chance the Rapper feature amongst the bemused homeowners who are visited by the band. There's also a very strange twist at the end of the video, but we won't ruin the surprise!

It's an unusual and amusing video that fits along with the band's quirky look and sound. Jeff Tweedy previously appeared as a musician on 'Parks and Recreation', so it's possible that's where him and Offerman first met. This is Offerman's first attempt at directing a music video and it's a pretty strong one. The actor, who is married to 'Will & Grace' actress Megan Mullally, is also a keen carpenter, and even released an instructional DVD in 2008 entitled 'Fine Woodstrip Canoe Building with Nick Offerman'. 

Outside of Pawnee, Offerman has appeared in a raft of great films, including The Lego Movie, 21 Jump Street (and its sequel, 22 Jump Street) and The Men Who Stare at Goats. He will next be featuring in Terrence Malick's anticipated Knight of Cups and A Walk in the Woods alongside Robert Redford.
