Name: Charles CaveTrack name: Reason To Drive

Hometown: London

Who? White Lies bassist and songwriter.

Why now? The White Lies man has released his first solo track in the form of this single, Reason To Drive. The song is the first taster from a solo album Cave is planning for next year, one he will make around work on the next full album by his band. “I can’t drive. And I have little intention of learning, but I think because of that I still view it in a really romantic way, and maybe it’s my way of clinging hold of my youth by not having this skill that feels perpetually adult,” he says of the song’s inspiration. “But I suppose I’m also equating my lack of being able to drive with a lack of possessing an adult grasp of my emotions and fears. I still feel like a child a lot of the time… so there is some longing and just wanting to do good in the song.” He’s also released a more festive-orienttated track entitled This Fucking Time Of The Year.
