Words by: Amanda Marano
ON THE OUTSIDE have recently released their latest single, “Just Keep Driving”. The song boasts a catchy melody, a soft pop sound, and a feel good vibe. Nostalgic and exciting, the track gets you wrapped up in the moment of leaving a small town behind. Lyrically, the song feeds in to that feeling of wanting to run away and explore, singing – “Baby just keep driving, waited all our lives and I don’t want to wait a second more, battle to the floor, yeah / Taking over backwards, anywhere the wind blows I just wanna roll the windows down, play the music loud, yeah.” With their gentle voices blending together for perfect harmonies, this will be your new favorite song to cruise to. The visuals follow the band as then drive in the sunlight, windows down, wind flowing through their hair.
The beauty of music is that songs often have a way of foreshadowing life. Written just prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, “Just Keep Driving” has taken on a deeper meaning for the members of the shining boy band. The song has become a message of perseverance, and has turned into an anthem of optimism during bleak times. As the lyrics say, through the good and the bad, the easy and the tough, “just keep driving.”
“Just Keep Driving” is the band’s fifth single. It follows the release of “Why Me”, their most successful single to date. ON THE OUTSIDE has been evolving their Americana, country-pop sound with exciting up-tempo beats. The up-and-coming band features the seamless vocal blend of Andrew Bloom, Dawson Huckabee, Devin Hayes, Jon Klaasen and Sam Jenkins. The group works with with production industry veterans Kyle Kelso [Kygo, Galantis, Aloe Blacc, Parachute] and Mike Shimshack [Britney Spears, Laura Bell Bundy].
In only the span of a year, ON THE OUTSIDE has been called one of Tiger Beat’s “Favorite New Boy Bands Since One Direction“. So far, the band has collectively amassed 22 million followers and over 3 billion views across their content. We can’t wait to see where their musical journey takes them next.
