Formed in 2012, the band has had a tumultuous history, repeatedly breaking up and rejoining. The most recent break up in 2020 shedded the rest of the original full-band line-up that joined Hartkop, as allegations of abuse from Harktop surfaced from now former band members, who formed their new band Sister Sandy afterwards. As a response to this, McCafferty released the song “Isn’t it beautiful?”. Afterwards, Hartkop, and thus McCafferty, vowed to never make music again. Hartkop later changed his mind and returned to music, as he started releasing singles for the album "Snoqualmie Welcomes You". In October of 2022, said album was released and is the latest addition to the McCafferty discography.
