Eliott, Scrivner and former "TRB" guitarist Brett Luddeman started gigging in Salt Lake City bars in 2001. Warren joined the band, adding his distinctive Rhodes piano stylings as they began recording their first album, Same as Cash. Following the departure of Luddeman in 2004, the band recruited Midgley and began writing their second album, Flex.
The Rodeo Boys have shared the stage with The Radar Brothers, David Pajo, The Apes, Erase Errata, Inviolet Row, Black Nasty, Pink Nasty, VHS or BETA?, The Numbers, and The Apes.
