Hailing from Northern New Jersey, the band formed in early 2008. Fueled by the songwriting team of Doug Hoekstra (bass) and Joe DeProspero (vocals), Tragically Yours’ music crosses seamlessly between genres of rock, alternative and metal.

The band was founded when Hoekstra, looking for an avenue to “carry out songs that had been floating around in [his] mind for years,” recruited DeProspero and long-time friend Danny Glozzy (drums) to start a project. While writing songs and developing their style, the trio went through a long and arduous search for a lead guitarist to complete the lineup. Their efforts were ultimately rewarded when they united with Ian Stafford (guitar), formerly of the Sleeping Revolt, whose skill and versatility brought the band to a new level.
