以加州为根据地的Finch乐队包括主唱Nate Barcalow,吉他手Randy Strohmeyer和Alex Linares、贝司手Derek Doherty以及鼓手Alex Pappas。当乐队组建之初,Strohmeyer已经把他们的资料递交给了Drive-Thru唱片公司。这个年轻的吉他手不断的联系着唱片公司以希望能发行一张专辑,希望公司能对他们的音乐感兴趣,他们的歌迷甚至不厌其烦给Drive-Thru老板Richard Reines写信希望能够让Finch与Drive-Thru建立起一种良好的友谊,所以当Strohmeyer正式和他的乐队在Drive-Thru表演的时候,他注意到Reines非常认真的在听他们的音乐。而且事实上Reines也正是在这个时候开始对Finch产生了浓厚的兴趣,然后与他们签了一份合同。他们在2001年终于在Drive-Thru公司的旗下发行了他们的第一张EP《Falling Into Place》,这为他们在次年发行他们的专辑《What It Is to Burn》建立了良好的基础。经过一个长时间的调整后,在2004年,Finch得到了一个为金属乐队Disturbed暖场的机会,之后结合各方面的意见,Strohmeyer巩固了Finch的音乐路线并确立了主唱Nate Barcalow。但是还没等人们对Finch热情消退下去的时候,Finch已经把他们的工作重新集中在了他们第二张更为成熟的专辑上——《Say Hello To Sunshine》。这张在2005年发行的新专辑相较之前一张唯一的变化就是更重了。

California-based emo rockers Finch, originally called Numb, include vocalist Nate Barcalow, guitarists Randy Strohmeyer and Alex Linares, bassist Derek Doherty, and drummer Alex Pappas. Strohmeyer actually had a hand in getting the band signed to Drive-Thru Records. The young guitarist contacted the label incessantly, intent on generating interest in his music. His fan mail and pestering even led to friendship of sorts with Drive-Thru owner Richard Reines. So when Strohmeyer inevitably pitched him Finch, he figured Reines was just being polite by listening. But Reines was genuinely enthusiastic about Finch and offered the band a contract. The 2001 four-song EP Falling into Place was the band's first release for Drive-Thru and sold over 6,000 copies in just its first three months of release. That set up the well-received full-length What It Is to Burn, which appeared the following year, produced by Mark Trombino (blink-182, Midtown). Finch immediately hit the road with RX Bandits and spent that summer on the Warped Tour. Tempers flared in August 2004 when Finch got into an on-stage fracas with alt-metal act Disturbed, allegedly over comments Strohmeyer had made about the band's music and its singer, David Draiman. But the flap soon faded, and Finch concentrated on work for their sophomore full-length and Geffen debut. With new drummer Mark Allen on board, Say Hello to Sunshine dropped in summer 2005, featuring a considerably heavier and slightly experimental sound. The album failed to resonate with much of their fan base, even though the band toured behind it through the end of the year with such acts as Head Automatica, HiM, and Skindred. By February 2006, Finch had gone on an "indefinite break." Some members of the band went on to join the Sound of Animals Fighting, along with members of RX Bandits, the Autumns, and Circa Survive.
