When multi-PLATINUM duo The Reklaws and international breakout artist Drake Milligan teamed up for their newest single “Honky Tonkin’ About,” traveling to Romania to film a music video on the Paramount film set wasn’t something any of the Country artists expected. But when the opportunity presented itself, the country artists booked the first flight. The music video is a visual masterpiece, so keep an eye out for cameos from some of Hollywood’s most iconic actors. As The Reklaws and Drake embrace their country roots with swoon-worthy harmonies, the video delivers the rowdy Reklaws party with a timeless twist that captures the spirit of honky-tonk traditions.

Written by The Reklaws’ Stuart Walker, Blake Redferrin (Florida Georgia Line), Thomas “Tawgs” Salter (Josh Groban, Hunter Hayes) and Callum Maudsley, the track came together as the group dreamed of being able to get back into bars and onto stages during wide-spread lockdowns in 2021. “We were trying to pull ourselves out of a funk one day during the pandemic so we sat down and thought about what we would want to party to at a honky tonk on a Friday night with our friends. From those daydreams, this song was born,” shared Stuart Walker.
