In the heart of the live music capital of the world, six friends came together to form a band that would make a lasting impression not only in music, but also in people’s lives.
Driver F is controlled chaos in rhythm. Over the past few years they have perfected their high energy live show packing venues to full capacity and headlining regional music festivals.Their work has resulted in a number of accomplishments including selling out their debut EP "Not Home Yet" and gaining regional / nation wide satellite radio play. In 2008, the band teamed up again with producer/engineer Jim Vollentine (Spoon, …Trail of Dead, The Anniversary), to record and release their full length album "Chase the White Whale". The album has turned out three singles and two self made video releases. With the success of their 2008 mid-west and east coast tour, the band continues to tour in support of their album. The new Driver F album and nationwide tour hits Spring 2010.
Put your headphones on, go to the show, listen to the music and you will understand. Let the music speak for itself.
What others have to say:
"Chase The White Whale is a dedication to following one's lifetime passion. Admirable, yes, and compared to several of the band's contemporaries, here is a theme that is purposed to be completely heartfelt and a personal journey. Passion and getting-back-on-the-horse are universal ideas, but Driver F applies them to their experiences and draws the listeners into their own white whale. ...So it's gnarly, personal and fresh on hooks. Driver F is the kind of band that comes only once in a neon-colored, v-necked moon." (8.8 of 10)

"Chase The White Whale is an album full of high energy rock which should soon be on the tips of everyone’s tongue. Remember the first time you listened to ‘Can’t Slow Down’ by Saves The Day, or ‘Tell All Your Friends’ from Taking Back Sunday? Needless to say, get excited." (4 out of 5)

"The six guys of Driver F all play with great skill and form a cohesive unit exemplified by a tight record with outstanding production value"
-Popwreck(oning)
"Chase The White Whale is a gem to be found; and once you find it, I'd say never let go. It's an album that could change perspectives on how creative the genre can be and hopefully gain the band and scene a couple new fans. If there was any unsigned band that I thought could do it, it would be this one. " (9 of 10)
-Highbeam Review
"Driver F’s new album Chase the White Whale is ten tracks of pure alt-pop goodness. What will ultimately win you over is the pleading, love-stricken vocals that are reminiscent of Jimmy Eat World."
-Austin Sound Check
"After hearing "Chase the White Whale" for the first time, I thought this
album is going to be huge. It was an automatic feeling when you know
you're not only listening to a great album, you're listening to a band
that is bound for a world wide buzz. The melodies, lyrics and uniqueness
make for one of the best independent records I've ever heard, period. It's
already a favorite out of my entire music catalog."

"Their sound reminds me of all of those great 90s bands had they been around today and took a lesson from the Fall Out Boy’s of the world. ...My favorite track is “Remember When That Train Wrecked Our Lifestyle.” It’s got to be the catchiest tune I’ve heard this year, from the beginning guitar riff to the epic vocals screaming “Not even an ocean could stop me now.” I’ve got to check these guys out live. And I intend to next month…" (A)
-INsite Magazine
"Chase the White Whale is an album that sounds like it came from a band that has been making hit pop/alternative records for years. ...I listen to this record and not only do I feel like I’m listening to everyone’s new favorite band, but I wonder—why the heck haven’t these guys been signed yet?!"

"It’s hard not to kinda fall in love with guys from Driver F - their energy and quirkiness translate to nothing but a good kind. All that is evidenced in the video for the lead single off of their new album Chase the White Whale. ..."
-Austin Sound
"Why aren’t this guys big, big stars already? Can someone answer me that? Please? ...The album is filled with multiple potential hits, strong instrumentals, and incredibly catchy lyrics and beats. Each track on the album has extreme hit potential, especially the second track; Temple of Doom." (5 of 5)
-IndieUprising.net
"Very good vocals accompany tons of strong hooks of melodic rock. From guitar tones to packagaing to a fun video, they've got it going on." (Pick of the Litter)
-HM Magazine
"...After listening to their debut, I’m starting to think that music labels are busy looking for the next Josh Groban, because I can’t think of a respectable pop/rock label that would listen to this band and turn them away. ...Their lyrics are honest enough to do The Starting Line proud, and their zeal and energy is absolutely infectious."
