With a sound that can be compared to The All-American Rejects, Third Eye Blind, and OneRepublic, My Favorite Highway's upbeat and melodically driven pop rock has developed into something that the world of pop music hasn't seen for a while. Two cousins from Fairfax, VA, a suburb of Washington, D.C., Dave and Will Cook, formed the band in January of 2005. Members Bobby, Andrew, and Pat joined the band later on, completing the line-up. (Andrew left and created The Friday Night Boys later)

Great bands are defined by great songs; and in the age of MTV and a constantly changing music industry great songs are hard to come by. It is this group's ability to compose great songs that will define their success. My Favorite Highway has set themselves apart from the mass of indie rock and trendy pop punk bands that occupy the modern rock scene. With a roster of excellent songs and a must-see live show under their belt My Favorite Highway shows unrivaled and unlimited potential that will leave listeners asking, "Where will this band be one year from now?"
Over a year on, and the American band has progressed dramatically, with the band changing in terms of members, music styles and varied songs.
At the end of the whirlwind, How To Call A Bluff was the most anticipated album to come out of Fairfax since... well, ever! Released in July of 2008, the 11 song album featured many new songs.
On November 20th, My Favorite Highway announced they have signed to Virgin Records.
On September 1st, 2010, David Cook announced via Tumblr that My Favorite Highway was "a chapter in their lives that was coming to a close".
In December 2010, My Favorite Highway will be performing their final shows as a band. These will be hometown shows at Jammin' Java in Northern Virginia.
