[edit] History

The band was initially a five-piece indie rock band consisting of Hendrix, McCall, Hood, Coxwell and then vocalist Michael Sasser. They released an EP in 2005 with 5 songs. In mid-2005 Sasser left to join With Blood Comes Cleansing, and the band decided to put Hendrix on vocals and guitar rather than find a replacement.^{[citation needed]}

The band was signed to Facedown Records in March of 2007, and their debut Facedown Records release, "Another Way Home," came out in stores nationwide on October 16th, 2007.^{[citation needed]}

In September of 2006, original drummer Mark Coxwell and original bassist Cliff McCall left the band. Shortly thereafter, Travis Hopkins began playing bass, and the band used a fill-in drummer for their November and December tours. In January 2008, Travis Hopkins switched instruments with Pat Hood.^{[citation needed]}

On May 23, 2008, the band announced on their myspace that they are splitting up. Their last show will be on June 7.^{[citation needed]}
