History

Band members Matt Jalbert, Charlie Dolan, and A.C. Carter began playing together while growing up on Long Island as teenagers. Dolan, Jalbert, and Carter formed their first band in seventh grade.[6] The group initially had a vocalist, Alessandro Zanelli, who left the group in 2011 and was not replaced; they have worked as an instrumental group since. Isaac Teel entered the band later when he met Dolan in college.[7] The group won its first major attention opening on tour for Umphrey's McGee in 2014.[8]
