"[1] They have toured the US and Canada with The Polyphonic Spree, Supergrass, Eisley, Midlake, and Guster, and have played shows with artists such as The Album Leaf, Jon Brion, DeVotchKa, Akron/Family, Angels of Light, and dios (malos).

Pilotdrift was formed in 2004 by singer-songwriter Kelly Carr, singer-songwriter Micah Dorsey, drummer Ben Rice, bassist Jay Budzilowski, keyboardist and guitarist Eric Russell, and guitarist John David Blagg.

That same year, the band self-released the album Iter Facere, to which Carr and Dorsey each contributed songs.

Pilotdrift did sign to the label, though Dorsey stepped away from the band, feeling that a life on the road would not agree with her.

In November 2011, Pilotdrift released the single "All These Things At One Time," featuring Dorsey (now known as Moonstryder).
