DC Drive is an American rock band from East Detroit, Michigan, that is perhaps best known for their song "U Need Love", featured in their 1992 album, DC Drive.

In the late 1980s, the band Adrenalin, having to cope with the loss of their original lead singer in 1980[1], being dropped by Polygram, and the collapse of MCA records, reformed into the band DC Drive.
