In November 2006, The Hush Sound embarked on their first headlining tour, supported by This Providence, This Is Me Smiling, and Murder by Death. The band took a month-long break before beginning another tour with Jack's Mannequin, Copeland, and Daphne Loves Derby. In support of the new record, the band went on a summer tour with label mates Panic! at the Disco and fellow cabaret-rock band The Dresden Dolls. During this time, the band started recording the follow-up to So Sudden, entitled Like Vines, which was produced by Sean O'Keefe and Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump (who also does guest vocals on the song "Don't Wake Me Up"). So Sudden was re-released on Decaydance (with some minor lyric changes) and the band soon became a part of the 2006 Black Clouds and Underdogs tour, with Fall Out Boy in the headlining slot and also featuring From First to Last, Hawthorne Heights, and the The All-American Rejects. Wentz knew Bob from his previous work in Chicago-based band The Audition, and, after listening, he sent The Hush Sound an email saying that he was interested in signing them to his Decaydance Records label. On the day they were streaming "So Sudden" on purevolume, Ryan Ross of Panic! At the Disco discovered their page and passed it along to Pete Wentz. They soon gained the attention of Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz. They released their first album with no label support at the time, but nevertheless sold 300 CDs in two nights.įive months later, the band began playing shows. They named it "So Sudden"-a reflection on how quickly things were moving for the band. The studio was the Gallery of Carpet located in Villa Park, IL run by owner Brian Zieske. In the eyes of many of their peers, Bob and Greta were deemed an "odd couple." Bob had always been a player and performer of rock music, whereas Greta was a classical pianist.īy the end of March of 2005, The Hush Sound took their music into the studio to record their debut full-length album. The two met when Greta was in 7th grade and Bob was in 10th. The Hush Sound was founded by Greta Salpeter and Bob Morris. Their second studio album, Like Vines, was released in 2006 on Fueled by Ramen. In 2005 the band released their first studio album So Sudden. The band consists of Bob Morris on vocals and guitar, Chris Faller on bass and vocals, Darren Wilson on drums and vocals, and Greta Salpeter on vocals and piano. Initially named "The Hush," the band changed their name to "The Hush Sound" when Geffen Records objected that their name was too similar to rapper Hush. The Hush Sound is a pop quartet from chicago, illinois.
