My Favorite Highway was an American pop rock band, originally formed in 2004 by cousins Dave Cook and Will Cook in the city of Fairfax, Virginia. While still unsigned the band recorded and released two EPs and one full-length album, selling over 100,000 digital singles independently before signing a major label record deal with Virgin Records in 2008.[1] In 2009, Virgin Records re-released the band’s record, "How To Call A Bluff", with the addition of two new songs, “Go” and Dreamer”. Their song, “Say So”, received moderate radio airplay throughout the U.S. during 2009. Many of the band’s songs have appeared on popular TV shows such as MTV’s The Hills, Laguna Beach, The City and The CW’s Fly Girls and 90210.[2] They played at The Bamboozle in 2009 and 2010 and have toured with artists such as The Cab, The Summer Set, Hellogoodbye, Fun, Forever The Sickest Kids, The Rocket Summer, and Kelly Clarkson, among others.[3] My Favorite Highway disbanded in September of 2010.[4]
