"Sunday Driver" is named after a gene (SYD) commonly found in mice.[1]
Sunday Driver was formed in the summer of 2000, though lead singer Chandrika "Chandy" Nath had earlier composed some of the songs while monitoring ice flows near the South Pole, during a field trip in Antarctica, collecting data for the British Antarctic survey.[2]
