Atlanta-based folk rock act, Drivin N Cryin, have spent most of their career on tour. In October 1985 Drivin N Cryin played their first show at Atlanta's famed 688 Club. The band quickly gained attention for their blistering live shows and amassed a rabid fanbase in the fertile soil of the late-1980s Southeast music scene.
After a gold record, nine full-length albums, and a handful of EPs to their credit, the band still refuses to rest. In 2012, a documentary about the band, entitled Scarred but Smarter: Life n Times of Drivin' N' Cryin', was produced. In 2015, a collection of 10 choice cuts from the band's 4-EP "Songs" series, entitled Best of Songs, was released on Nashville's Plowboy Records. Additionally, the band was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame the same year. The following year, Drivin N Cryin released a vinyl-only album, entitled Archives Vol One, with a collection of basement recordings from the years 1988 to 1990.
In 2018, New West Records re-released their self-titled 1997 album with a new name, Too Late To Turn Back Now!. In 2019, the band celebrated the release of their ninth studio album, Live the Love Beautiful.
