À propos de cet audio

 This week we’re starting our interview series with El Paso, Texas indie-rock band Late Night Drive Home who just put out their debut record, as i watch my life online, a concept record about, you guessed it, growing up in the first real era where using the internet wasn’t an option. Our discussion takes us through the band’s journey growing up as the internet expanded in ways those who remember a childhood without it never really imagined. Now, the internet is a necessity, especially for artists who are trying to get their name out there. The guys of Late Night Drive Home have been making music together since high school, and quickly learned to utilize TikTok in the early COVID era of the app to help put their music in the ears of hundreds of thousands of new listeners. We spoke with singer Andre Portillo, drummer Brian Dolan, bassist Freddy Baca, and founding member and guitarist Juan “Ockz” Vargas about their ever-changing relationships with the internet and how and why they wanted to use their record to depict what it was like truly growing up on the internet. From dating apps and social media, to AI music and online porn addictions, the band shared all their positive and negative feelings and connections to the online world they’ve become accustomed to being a part of.
