live at the greek immortalizes The Driver Era's June 11, 2023 sold-out performance at the legendary Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. Consisting of a career-spanning setlist including songs such as “Preacher Man,” “Afterglow,” and hit single “A Kiss,” the monumental show was one of the duo's largest headlining performances to date. With the album, fans can experience the excitement and unparalleled energy of their favorite moments from the show all over again.

On live at the greek, lead singer Ross Lynch shares, “All the years it has taken us to get here, from being signed to parting ways with our label to rebranding and creating The Driver Era has been a journey. We went all the way back down to playing little clubs, and then we just worked our way back up to The Greek and it feels…crazy.”  

Regarding the band's tour as a whole, he continues, “These are fans that will come to ten shows a tour and we'll see them back to back to back. All the people showing up at the airport, all the people coming to the meet and greets means a lot to us. We've never been a band that's been played a lot on the radio, but we've always had this tight-knit group of fans. I feel really really grateful for them as they are quite literally making our dreams come true.”  

With over 450 million global streams to date, 50 million YouTube views, and 31 million combined social followers, The Driver Era have solidified themselves as a driving force in the alt-pop space. Their first release, the catchy 2018 single “Preacher Man,” became an instant hit and is one of the duo's most popular songs to date.

Following the release of their widely-praised third album last year, Summer Mixtape, the band embarked on a massive sold-out world tour, selling over 120,000 tickets and performing in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, London, São Paolo, Osaka, and Sydney. On October 20th, they released their latest single, “Rumors,” which has gained nearly half a million streams on Spotify alone since its release. Fans can expect an accompanying music video in the near future.

2023 proved to be an impressive touring year for the band – in addition to concluding a major headlining tour, they performed sets at internationally renowned festivals such as Mad Cool Festival in Spain and Lollapalooza Paris. Stateside, they played festivals including Wonderbus Festival in Columbus, OH and Oceans Calling in Ocean City, MD. Stay tuned for more from The Driver Era.
