Grammy-winning country music artist Marty Raybon has a new single out called “Daddy Phone,” a song detailing the emotions behind the post-divorce separation of a child from his father.

“This song lets the child know that dad’s persistence to making sure we have a life together is not going to be forfeited because we’re miles apart,” Raybon told DadsDivorce.com in an interview.

David Mastran, co-writer of “Daddy Phone,” said the song’s inspiration came from a family member who keeps in touch with his son, who lives in another country with his mother, via his cell phone or “daddy phone.” (Click here to listen to the song.)

“When I heard this song for the first time I did relate to it because I came from a divorced family and I desperately loved both my mom and dad,” he said.
