They are the other half of Taking Back Sunday who arent Taking Back Sunday. They have a girl back up singer and they make happy catchy poppy songs. So go d/l some or check out http://www.straylightrun.com.

Some song titles would be: A Slow Descent, The Tension and the Terror, Mistakes we Knew we Were Making

They're better than Taking Back Sunday. It's cool, they're playing with The New Amsterdams this fall. It will be good.

Seems like all the people who break off of TBS end up in a better band. Brand new and Straylight. Have you seen the new TBS backup singer? He drove me crazy on Jimmy Kimmell. I still love Tell All Your Friends as a cd though.

there is no one in brandnew who was in taking back sunday and also the new guitarist from TBS rocks he is from the band Breaking Pangea which split up and half went to TBS and the other to Straylight Run.

I thought Jesse was in TBS? I'm assuming you're right though since you're frong long island. I just remember someone telling me he was. I have no idea I don't study the bands I just like their music. I plead stupidity. I'm sorry but I liked the previous guitarists voice a lot better.

jess is really good friends with tbs' lead... i dont think he was ever in the band though.

Did someone else used to sing for them? I have the demos and it doesn't sound like the current singer at all.

for tbs? yes, they changed lead singers

for brand new? i have no idea.

I also heard Jesse from Brand New was in TBS along time ago. But on to Straylight Run. I just love them. I especially like the song Michelle sings.

i'm so jealous of her.. she has the best job in the world.

this band is so fucking awesome and cool, they put on a great live show, and they will be going places. John nolan is fucking sweet and every thing he is doing with straylight is ten times better then anything with TBS. If you haven't gave them a chance yet, i highly suggest you do
