With a fusion of jazz, funk, and classic rock that looked up to Sting, Stevie Wonder, and Dave Matthews Band, the band eventually graduated from college, self-released its debut album, More Than It Would Seem, and relocated to New York City before the end of 2000. On a Rolling Ball appeared two years later, and Warner Bros. released the EP Live at World Cafe in 2005. The band refashioned itself as a trio and returned in 2008 with a self-titled release, which focused on poignant songcraft in the vein of David Gray.
