[edit] History
Scenes from a Movie members Tony Bush and Jon Ewing were friends in high school, but Ewing attended the University of Charleston while Bush went to college at Bowling Green.[1] Ewing, together with guitarist Luke Del Papa, then convinced Bush to drop out of school, and the group expanded to a quintet, choosing the name Scenes from a Movie.[1] The group started touring locally and soon found slots opening for groups such as The Starting Line, Thursday, and Boys Like Girls.[1] They signed to 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 debut LP, The Pulse, was released on July 24th, 2007, which garnered comparisons to Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco.[1][3][4][5][6] They were named SPIN Band of the Day on September 14, 2007.[7]
As of October 2nd, 2007, Bush (vocals) and Adam Triplett (bass) announced their departure from SFAM. No permanent replacements have yet been named, though Logan Mace and Aaron Squared have been confirmed for upcoming tour dates.
