Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Victory Drive formed in California with Ethan Kray on vocals, Jake Westfall on guitar, Emily Carter on bass, and Matthew James on drums. Their debut single "California" came out in 2016 and got some attention, partly because the music video showed aerial shots of the state. They released albums like Westward in 2016, Midnight Sun in 2018, and The Long Road Home in 2020, along with a California EP in 2021.
Their songs like "California" and "Hometown Anthem" have a nostalgic feel that connects with listeners who grew up in similar places. In 2019, there were some plagiarism accusations about a melody in one of their songs, but those were dismissed. The band kept making music that blends indie rock with folk elements, staying grounded in their Californian roots without trying to reinvent themselves.
