The band was initially formed in Alabama, but has since based themselves throughout the Southern United States and, later (after American Idol), nationwide.
The band features Brian Less on keyboard/piano/vocals, Sam Gunderson on lead guitar/vocals, Mitch Jones on bass guitar, Zippy Dieterich on drums/vocals, and Jeff Lopez on saxophone/backing vocals.
The band toured the United States during the American Idol concert tour, playing numerous after-parties that sometimes featured Hicks on stage, along with Hicks's friends and fellow American Idol finalists, Elliott Yamin, Ace Young, Bucky Covington, and Chris Daughtry (they, along with Hicks, made up the top five men).
This concert was the night of the Birmingham stop of the American Idol tour, and Hicks, Yamin, Young, and Covington appeared with the band.
The keyboard player, Brian Less, is originally from Memphis, Tennessee, and is shorter compared to his bandmates; Taylor Hicks (who played basketball in high school) and Sam Gunderson are relatively taller, so it unintentionally presented Less, Hicks, and Gunderson as the frontmen for the band.
