LOVE TURNS INTO CONTENT ON LATE NIGHT DRIVE HOME’S NEW SINGLE “SHE CAME FOR A SWEET TIME” — STREAM  SECOND SINGLE OFF OF UPCOMING DEBUT ALBUM  AS I WATCH MY LIFE ONLINE  OUT JUNE 27 VIA EPITAPH — PRE-SAVE WATCH THE FRENETIC AND ECLECTIC OFFICIAL VIDEO  HEADLINE NORTH AMERICAN TOUR ON SALE  NOW — SEE ALL DATES HERE Press photo by Jaydog  “...their sound, and goals, are all their own — reinventing indie music for a modern age while increasing representation for Latin artists in the genre.”

"...the young band deliberately lean into more expansive textures and darker thematic territory, distilling all their coming of age angst into a decidedly mature trio of soundscapes."

“late night drive home reminds us that we shouldn’t form a picture of the world through make-believe.”

Today releasing the second single from their upcoming debut record, late night drive home opens “she came for a sweet time” with the familiar screech of guitar feedback. The next scene in the band’s portrait of living their entire existence in the shadow of the internet, the new single is a case study on dating apps. Intoxicated not only by the endless options to swipe through, but by the feeling that you always have to be with another person, there’s a moral panic behind how we only show the best of ourselves online. After much back and forth about using other people as an escape, the song comes to a sobering, sudden halt with the line, “But you still got to work a ten hour shift after this” — Stream.  “The song speaks about online hookup and meet-up culture — the instant gratification cultivated by TikTok and Reels,” says the band’s guitarist Juan “Ockz” Vargas. “Online dating apps work the same way; you’re able to swipe between hundreds of individuals in the span of five minutes, turning love into content.”  Singer Andre Portillo continues, “Isolation is an interesting concept when you factor in the idea of millions of people in the palm of your hand. We see face after face, yet we don't think twice about our social interactions. The cure instantly becomes the downfall of your mental stability. Relationships lose meaning, I mean, there's no point in worrying about the previous interaction when you'll have a new one the next day.” Today’s single also arrives with a frenetic and eclectic official video. Starring the band, they are surrounded by flashing, glitchy content that represents the unquietable online mind — Watch.  On June 27, late night drive home will release their debut LP as I watch my life online via Epitaph. A commentary on the World Wide Web, the 13-track offering codes together vignettes of mistaking online connection for something real. With their success outgrowing the bedrooms they used to create in, late night drive home’s debut album is the first time they’ve worked in proper studios. And with this growth, we see them move from the indie-rock bucket to a more expansive, electronic realm — Pre-save.   So far from the record, the band released the glitchy yet crystalline “terabyte,” a rumination on an addiction to adult content and the unending cycle of seeking online validation and destroying self-worth. The first release saw early support from DIY, AltPress, Glide, The Line of Best Fit and more, as well as a placement on the cover of Spotify’s New Noise playlist.  Bringing their debut album to the road this summer, the as I watch my life online Tour begins in July in Austin, TX. late night drive home will play in some of the biggest rooms of their young career across 22 dates, culminating in a massive hometown show in El Paso, TX, on August 16.
