Throughout their childhood and teenage years, they played in a number of bands together, but as they reached college, they dropped out and relocated to Nashville to pursue their project at the time, Dinner And A Suit.

As that project dissolved, Capeci and Beretta regrouped with friends Stephen Cunsolo and Nicholas Sainato to form Nightly.

The band toured extensively throughout the end of 2016 and beginning of 2017, opening for acts like Ke$ha, The All-American Rejects, Zella Day, and K.Flay.

After being featured at the We Found New Music showcase at SXSW, they embarked on their first headline tour in April 2017, with support from Saint Mesa, the project of singer and songwriter Danny McCook.

In the notes app screenshots they shared on social media, they also explained how challenging the past year was and that they needed to postpone their upcoming tour.
