The band was founded by Alex Sheldon (guitar) and Adam McMillion (drums) in 2004. McMillion, who had recently graduated from Churchill High School in Michigan, met together in college and started playing together. The group added members Josh Frost (vocals), Jim Czech (guitar), and Eli Clark (bass) and began performing and recording as a quintet.[3]
In 2006, their debut EP Ghosts was released. The band toured behind the EP, appearing on the Vans Warped Tour and opening for groups such as The Audition and Spitalfield.[3] They were signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released their new debut album A Fire So Big the Heavens Can See It on April 1, 2008. A Fire So Big the Heavens Can See It charted at No. 46 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart.[4] The album was produced by James Paul Wisner.[5] Allmusic[6] and Jesus Freak Hideout[7] compared the band's sound to Jimmy Eat World, as did IndieVisionMusic, who likened the album to Jimmy Eat World's Bleed American.[8]
In 2011, Adam McMillion left the group and began drumming for the band Fireflight.[9]
In June 2012, the group announced new material, with lead singer Josh Frost having been replaced by new vocalist Travis Bobier.[10] This lineup released the group's second and final full-length album, Flight, in 2013.
