Ross & Rocky Lynch Explain The Meaning Behind New Band Name, The Driver Era

When Ross and Rocky Lynch announced their new project, The Driver Era, not a lot of people actually got the meaning behind the name.

Now, the two brothers are explaining it to fans in their new interview with Billboard.

“There are a lot of cool side stories to The Driver Era,” Ross says. “There’s a lot of little inspirations here and there from different things we like. Really where the name came from was just a conversation that Rock and I were having about the future and stuff.”

He continues, “We’re always talking about anything future-leaning. Our biggest idols are people like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk, and people that are constantly trying to push the envelope.”

“We were just talking about all of the technological advances, and really exciting stuff like Space X. I think somewhere along the way, The Driver Era was mentioned in the conversation, and it just kinda had a ring to it. It felt nice. We decided it should be the band name.”

The Driver Era will release their debut single, “Preacher Man”, on Friday. Check out a new sneak peek below!
