The band was founded in 2001 by bassist and keyboardist Jeremy Dawson and vocalist and guitarist Chad Petree. Both had known each other for years growing up in Shawnee, Oklahoma and worked together on previous music projects such as Cloud2Ground and Slyder. After these projects, they went underground for a brief time, but continued making music together until enlisting vocalist Ursula Vari. In 2004, in Los Angeles, the band parted with Vari and hired Carah Faye Charnow as their new lead singer, as well as drummer Mikey Martin.
