5 NASCAR Drivers appear in the new music video by Saving Abel‏

The new video by the band SAVING ABEL (www.savingabel.com) features popular NASCAR drivers. Saving Abel are currently out on the road in support of Seether and Nickelback. You may know them from their radio hit songs "Addicted," or "18 Days."

The band just filmed the video for their next video "Drowning" during some time off last week. The new video has a complete NASCAR treatment and even stars some NASCAR drivers.

Here's a list of the drivers in the video.

Jeremy Mayfield Featured in Music Video for Rock Group Saving Abel

HARRISBURG, N.C. (March 23, 2009) – Jeremy Mayfield depicts a small town racing hero in Saving Abel’s music video for the single “Drowning Face Down”. The video, shot today at Mayfield Motorsports in Harrisburg, N.C., was produced and directed by Camp Riley and Shaun Silva, respectively. The single was released last week, with the video debut scheduled for mid April.

“It was really cool to be a part of this video,” said Mayfield. “I’ve done this sort of thing in the past, but this one really hits home because it’s a story that’s a lot like my own.”

The video offers a portrayal of one man’s quest for greatness in the world of NASCAR, prompting fan support for his underdog racing organization – a state of affairs Mayfield knows well.

“Considering we just started this team 52 days ago, I think it’s safe to say we know what it’s like to be an underdog in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series,” added Mayfield.

While the video primarily features Mayfield as the hard working driver, there are special cameos by fellow drivers Clint Bowyer, Martin Truex Jr., Carl Edwards and Brian Vickers.

Mayfield’s race shop offered the perfect setting for the video’s depiction of a small town garage in contrast to the typical big-team facilities. While Mayfield’s efforts represent the heart of every small racer across the country, the hopeful hero depicted in “Drowning” will strike a chord with race fans and the general public alike.
