The sextet met in high school, and before much time Hindman became the singer in the screamo/hardcore band Corban Eldra.
Since their formation in 2006 they are known for the genre-bending compositions that range from breezy indie pop, psychedelic folk, shoegaze, and rock and hopeful lyrics.

In May 2010, they played 2 show in Los Angeles, CA one at the prestigious Hotel Café and the infamous Viper Room before beginning on a Summer Tour of the Midwest United States and Northeastern United States with the first performance at the Summer Camp Music Festival[5] at Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, Illinois.They are scheduled to appear with The Black Keys, Slightly Stoopid, Blues Traveler, Widespread Panic at the Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival in Ozark, Arkansas.
After the summer of 2010 and multiple attempts at improving living conditions on the road, Hindman decided a healthier music environment was required for a lasting career.
