If you're going to write a song called "Drake's Dad", you damn well better get Drake's dad for the music video.

Luckily, that is exactly what Arkells did for their southern gospel influenced jam off Morning Report, which is out next week.

The song is inspired by a true story, which Max Kerman elaborates:

"Last summer I was on a road trip with my best friends through the American south, and in the magic of the night, we happened to meet Drake’s dad - Dennis Graham - in a Memphis bar. He couldn’t have been more gracious, especially given that there were 16 of us, drunk on friendship and cheap American beer. This chance encounter inspired this song.
The narrative carries on to Nashville for some more shenanigans, and finishes with us all crawling back into bed back home in Hamilton, very tired and missing our girls."
