Mike Leblanc (bass guitar) temporarily replaced Faller after he left the band for a few months in 2008.

In 2005, the band released their first studio album, So Sudden, independently, which was rereleased through Decaydance Records and Fueled by Ramen.

Their third album, Goodbye Blues, was recorded in October and November 2007 in Los Angeles and was released March 18, 2008.

During their early years in the Chicago community of Pilsen, they would hold practice in Throop Park and play live for the Razas.

They soon recruited bassist Chris Faller and drummer Darren Wilson who had played in a previous band together, "Until Sundown."

By the end of March 2005, The Hush Sound took its music to producer Brian Zieske who helped them realize their vision for their debut full-length album.

Wentz, liking what he heard, sent The Hush Sound an email, stating that he was interested in signing them to his Decaydance Records label.

Like Vines was recorded in March 2006 over three weeks with producer Sean O' Keefe and co-producer Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy.

The tour in fact celebrated the 10th anniversary of the release of Like Vines and their sets began with a full play-through of the album.

The band took a month-long break before beginning another tour with Jack's Mannequin, Copeland, and Daphne Loves Derby.

On March 7, 2007 The Hush Sound began a co-headline tour with Straylight Run, supported by Spitalfield and Pablo.

Destinations included the Wiltern in Los Angeles, The Warfield in San Francisco, and other cities and venues.

In the summer of 2008, they headlined the "Dance Across the Country Tour," supported by The Cab, The Morning Light, and Steel Train.

In early 2013, they began touring throughout the West Coast, beginning at the Troubador in Los Angeles, California, on March 3.
