The group formed shortly after the trio became roommates in 2012. Kyle Rausch and Ervin were already bandmates in the indie-pop band The ACBs and Collin had been playing for years in the Kansas City area in various bands. The three shared a love for 1960s era pop rock and soon started writing their own music.[1]
In 2014 they released the self-titled Shy Boys on High Dive Records. The album received generally positive reviews,[2] and the single "Bully Fight" was featured on Spin.com.[3] In June 2014 the band recorded and released two more singles and one of them, "Life Is Peachy," was featured on Stereogum.[4]
On April 4, 2018, it was announced that the band had signed to Polyvinyl Record Co.[5] They will be releasing their sophomore album, Bell House on August 3, 2018.[6] The first single from the album, "Take the Doggie" and an accompanying lyric video were released on June 5, 2018.
