The story behind the song

"From Where You Are" is a poignant dedication to teens who have lost their lives in accidents, written by frontman Jason Wade. It was created to encourage safe driving, inspired by a friend of Wade's who died in a car accident at 16. The song, produced by Jude Cole, was released as a promotional single in 2007 for Allstate's Teen Driving Program, later appearing in a revised version on the band's fifth album, Smoke & Mirrors. It plays like a heartfelt remembrance, urging reflection and caution.
