Alt-pop’s hottest duo The Driver Era, comprised of brothers Ross and Rocky Lynch, return with their newest single “Get Off My Phone,” a modern post-breakup anthem perfectly reminiscent of those drunken nights and complete obsession over your ex.

“Get Off My Phone” marks what could be the start of a monumental year for the pair, seeing the duo stepping into personal lyricism and enhancing their overall sound. The single rings as a true testament to that with its punchy guitar hooks and a catchy pop-chorus that can’t help but make us get up and dance.

Not only is the piece instrumentally impressive, but the lyricism spares no biting detail as the duo exposes the truth of just how hard and messy it can be to heal from a breakup when social media is in the picture. Soft vocals layered with a sense of desperation are the cherry on top as they expose the ups and downs of a break-up. Whether it be lying to your friends that you’re ok on a drunken night out or accidentally crashing your car while stalking their page, they put it all out on the table. Ross explains, “It gets pretty annoying when your phone keeps trying to show you happy memories of a past relationship.”
