About The Driver Era
Known for their signature sound and larger-than-life live shows, THE DRIVER ERA, consisting of brothers Ross and Rocky Lynch, aren’t new to the industry by any means. Since their debut single “Preacher Man” in 2018, they have amassed over 450M streams, garnered over 31M combined followers across social media, and have been praised by the likes of Rolling Stone, NME, PAPER, MTV, and many others. Their studio albums X, Girlfriend (containing hit single “A Kiss”), and Summer Mixtape have earned the duo high praise, with Alternative Press applauding them for crafting “a sound that’s all their own.”
In October 2023, they released their sparkling single, “Rumors,” which has an accompanying music video that has gained nearly 2M views since its release. They kicked off 2024 by releasing new single “Get Off My Phone” with the lively music video giving fans a taste of what they can expect from the upcoming tour.
THE DRIVER ERA’s studio work is only one half of what makes them special, however. From their beginnings as members of the band R5, the duo are veterans when it comes to touring. Known for creating a live show that doubles as a party, the band has sold out headlining shows and captivated fans with lively festival performances across the globe — reaching everywhere from Asia and the U.S. to Europe and South America (and everywhere else in between). THE DRIVER ERA’s sold-out performance at the legendary Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, CA was immortalized in December 2023 with their first live album, live at the greek, accompanied by a stunning concert recap film.
In addition to being a dynamic and talented musician, lead vocalist Ross is also an acclaimed actor, starring in Netflix’s ‘Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,’ the biopic ‘My Friend Dahmer’ and more. He was recently featured in the viral music video for Troye Sivan’s, “One Of Your Girls.”
