Streaming on all digital platforms, the impactful "Drink About That" was written by Sam Grow, Chris Lindsey and Taylor Phillips.
"Director Ed Pryor captured such feeling and passion in this video," commented Grow. "I hope it will help raise awareness of the dangers of distracted driving and remind folks to put that phone away!"
