Before You Exit

Before You Exit is an American pop rock band originally from Orlando, Florida, now based in Los Angeles, California.

'[3] Wood's mother coined the name 'Before You Exit,'[4] initially stylized in the form of texting lingo as 'B4UXIT'[5] and later changed to the full grammatically correct spelling.

The band also auditioned for X Factor USA[11] and made it through to the judges' houses round but dropped out because they realized that the competition wasn't for them.

In August 2012, the band line up changed as Toby McDonough, younger brother of Connor and Riley, joined the group.

Due to their growing success and recognition in South America, the band was invited to perform at Brazil's 2012 NoCapricho Festival.

[12] The band was the only supporting act for the North American leg of English singer Olly Murs' Right Place Right Time Tour.

In early 2014, live member Braiden Wood announced via Tumblr that he would resign from the band to take on a career as a solo artist.

[20] In June 2014, the band then went on to join the girl group Fifth Harmony on their Fifth Times A Charm Tour after opening for them at the House of Blues in Orlando earlier in the year.

During the summer of 2015, Before You Exit joined English band The Vamps on their American tour as a supporting act, alongside The Tide.

[26][27] On April 26, 2016, Before You Exit announced The All The Lights Tour, with Christina Grimmie and special guests, which would visit 11 cities and run from May 29 – June 17, 2016.

[31] On Twitter, lead singer Riley said the song is about "initial[ly] falling for someone" and learning everything about them, but when it ends, it's almost as if you never met, even though the feelings are still there.

[32] The band has written songs with Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low, Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, Stephen Barker Liles of Love and Theft, and Dan Book and Alexei Misoul, producers who have worked with acts such as Hot Chelle Rae and The Summer Set.

The band has said they draw inspiration from artists like Rascal Flatts, John Mayer, Maroon 5 and hope to one day write with them.

Ryan Wheeler announced January 5, 2016, on social media that he would be taking a break from performing with Before You Exit to turn his focus towards his new band, Blame Candy.
