History

Scenes from a Movie members Tony Bush and Jon Ewing were friends in high school. Ewing went on to the University of Charleston while Bush went to college at Bowling Green State University.[1] Ewing, and the guitarist Luke Del Papa, convinced Bush to leave university and the group expanded to a quintet, choosing the name Scenes from a Movie.[1] Adding Jared Miller on drums and Adam Triplett on bass guitar, the group started touring, soon appearing with groups such as The Starting Line, Thursday and Boys Like Girls.[1] They signed to an East West Records subsidiary, One Big Spark, in 2006, and continued touring, playing at Warped Tour 2007[2] and then opening for Permanent ME and The Junior Varsity.[1] Their first LP, The Pulse, was released on July 24, 2007, and was compared to Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco.[1][3] They were named Spin magazine's Band of the Day on September 14, 2007.[4]
