Known for their signature sound and larger-than-life live shows, The Driver Era, consisting of brothers Rocky and Ross Lynch, aren’t new to the industry by any means.

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 your 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.

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).
