The band started as a project was started after touring with M. Ward, Ambulance LTD, Rachael Yamagata, Panic! at the Disco, and Adam Franklin of Swervedriver. The formation followed with writing and recording at Ronick's Thinman Studios in Brooklyn, that culminated in the release of their debut album, Rush, released on February 3, 2009. Singles from the album include "Detroit", "Shine" and "Plans & Reveries", with the latter their signature song, explained as to convey the idea that some ideas are stuck to and followed while others become reveries and are never accomplished, and is noted for featuring on The CW's One Tree Hill episode; "Deep Ocean Vast Sea" (aired on October 19, 2009), and "Shine" was featured on the seventh season of So You Think You Can Dance as the farewell song. They performed live on the season finale of the show, on August 12, 2010, where Ronick began the song by playing piano, but quickly abandoned it to instead pursue a solo vocal montage of the season's emotional moments. "Shine" was also featured in the film Valentine's Day and appears on the soundtrack.
