Dropping Daylight began when the original members (Sebastian Davin, along with Rob Burke and now former drummer Jake Englund) were in junior high under the name “Sui Generis”. Around 2000 at the Berkley school of music Sebastian Davin and former drummer Jake Englund recorded a short disc for school project purposes. Liking the sound of it they called former Associated Mess member and current bassist Rob Burke who was looking through a dictionary and found the band name “Sui Generis” which was later found to be a Latin band signed to Sony Records. The spelling was changed to Sue Generis and vocalist and keyboardist Sebastian Davin recruited his younger brother, Seth Davin to practice with them and was later permanently named their guitarist. The name for legal reasons was Later changed to Dropping Daylight when they were signed by Octone Records in 2005.[1]
The band toured on the Vans Warped Tour for a number of years, but more recently have toured with such acts as Breaking Benjamin, Monty Are I, and Jason Mraz. They have been featured on MTV News: You Hear it First.[1] Their track “Tell Me” off their first full-length album, Brace Yourself, has been receiving regular radio-play from a number of stations.
