The band was discovered by former Kid Rock manager Michael Rand performing at the Atchafalaya River Cafe. Rand proceeded to book over 350 dates on the group unsigned. Extensive publicity and artist development was regimented. This work eventually led to Michael bringing the band to Universal Music Group CEO Doug Morris under the direction of long time A&R rep Reen Nalli. They were later joined by former guitarist/vocalist C.B. Hudson and bassist Matt Noveskey.
