The group has released two albums Nico Vega (2009)[2] and Lead to Light (2014).[3][4][5] Billboard described Lead to Light as possessing "some of the most unstoppable pop-rock hooks heard all year."[4] After a hiatus announced on June 6, 2016, the band returned nearly two years later on April 6, 2018, when Volkman announced a new single and a return on her Instagram.[6]
In 2020, Volkman and Epand formed a new duo called TWWO, and released their debut EP "Pull the Knife Out".[7] The band reunited in 2023, with the return of Michael Pena, as they announced production of new music and an upcoming show in Los Angeles.
