The group consists of lead singer Brittany Howard, guitarist Heath Fogg, bassist Zac Cockrell, and drummer Steve Johnson.
Here is some background information on Alabama Shakes from the Hold On Songfacts: The R&B-inspired Rock band Alabama Shakes originated when lead singer/guitarist Brittany Howard approached bassist Zac Cockrell during a high school psychology class in Athens, Alabama and the pair began meeting after school to write songs. Howard and Cockrell then approached Punk-Rock drummer Steve Johnson, who was working at a local music store, to join the band. The trio recorded some of their songs in a studio in Decatur, Alabama and subsequently recruited guitarist Heath Fogg on his return to Athens from college in Tuscaloosa. Originally christened "The Shakes," the band later renamed themselves The Alabama Shakes in order to differentiate themselves from other bands with their original name.
The Alabama foursome gained widespread media attention after releasing a self-titled four-song EP in September 2011 and Rough Trade Records in the United Kingdom and ATO Records in the United States signed them two months later. Hold On was released as the first single from their debut album, Boys & Girls .

I see your skin here
And I know she ain't here before
Oh come baby, oh come on
I'll get you home
And I'll get you some more
You give me feelings
Feelings that are cutting the chest
I'm in your future
You just don't even know it
Drive by baby, won't you let me ride
Drive by baby, won't you let me ride
And we'll ride, I'll ride, alright, alright
I'll ride, alright, let's go
For hours
I've been waiting by the door
I keep on waiting
Maybe I'll wait some more
I won't give in
What you wanna do [?]
I'm in your future
And you just don't even know it
Drive by baby, won't you let me ride
Drive by baby, won't you let me ride
And we'll ride, I'll ride, alright, alright
And we'll ride, alright, we're alright, we're alright
And we'll ride, and we'll ride, and we'll ride, and we'll ride
And we'll ride, and we'll ride, and we'll rid, and we'll ride
And we'll ride, and we'll ride, and we'll ride, and we'll ride
And we'll ride, and we'll ride
Let's go
