History

In February 2009, Carney created the group with Jamie Stillman, the drummer from Teeth of the Hydra after Carney's fellow Black Keys member Dan Auerbach was on tour for his debut solo album, Keep It Hid. Stillman had wanted the band to have a happy, upbeat vibe and suggested Jon Finley from Party of Helicopters and Beaten Awake to sing and play guitar. Steven Clements from Houseguest joined, playing keyboard and also providing back-up vocals. Soon, the band found Greg Boyd of Ghostman & Sandman to play drums. The band recorded their first album in Carney's hometown of Akron, Ohio, with sound engineer Ben Vehorn, notable for his work in bands Love as Laughter and Houseguest.[2]

gollark: Much of that seems to be from governments now.
gollark: It's a shame there isn't very good micropayments stuff available for most people. I would donate small amounts of money toward arbitrary internet people if possible.
gollark: I see.
gollark: It's not very difficult.
gollark: *Are* there cons beyond "sometimes it blocks things overaggressively"?
