M. Ward released his More Rain LP earlier this spring, and now he's offered up a new clip for the album's latest single "Slow Driving Man."

The music video was directed by Carlos Foster and features Ward himself alongside a special guest appearance from Conor Oberst.
 
"It's about a driver in San Francisco who is driving through a world that's suddenly moving too fast," Ward explained in a press release. "One night, he happens to pick up a customer who he recognizes from a previous life."
 
He was also quick to add that the tale is "based on true events." Scroll past Ward's upcoming live dates to watch his real life experiences get recreated onscreen in the player below.
