At that time, they formed a band called Kara's Flowers with Jesse Carmichael, and Mickey Madden while attending Brentwood School in Los Angeles. Four years later, while they were playing in a Malibu beach party, they were spotted by indie producer Tommy Allen.

Upon their return to the music industry in 2000, music producer Tim Sommer signed them a demo deal for the MCA Records, and recorded three tracks. After several recording companies rejected their demo tracks, Octone Records executives noticed them when they saw them performed in a gig held at The Viper Room.
