The Driver Era has us tossing, turning, and grooving with the release of their latest single, "You Keep Me Up At Night." On the track, the alt-pop duo, comprised of brothers Ross and Rocky Lynch, showcase their talent for crafting infectious pop tracks, delivering a creation marked by a driving bass line, vibrant drum patterns, and '80s-inspired synths.

The playful single opens with retro-inspired production, laying the foundation for Ross' smooth, sultry vocals. Cheeky verses like, "All up in my system turn it up and let it blow" and "Once you're in my rhythm / Then you cannot let me go / She said, 'Oh, you freaky' / Got me thinking things like 'woah,'" lure the listener into the hypnotic, endorphin rush-inducing soundscapes, manifesting nights on the town dancing under the stars.

As tension builds on the pre-chorus, The Driver Era describe their dancefloor darling's magnetic look in her eyes, stating that she always looks "Like there was something you're tryna hide." The catchy, hook-filled chorus bursts into a lively eruption of thrumming bass lines, poppy percussion, and rushing guitar riffs as Ross croons that she's the reason he's up at night, hypnotized by her aura and unable to break her spell over him.

The single follows the band's previous release, "Get Off My Phone," a standout breakup anthem that signaled a shift towards a more alternative sound for the duo. With a successful North American headlining tour and major festival appearances in South America, The Driver Era is now set to conquer Europe and the UK with their upcoming tour.
