Formed in the suburbs of Seattle , This Providence came together in mid-2003. Inspired by Seattle ’s
prolific and diverse music scene, the band was determined to move away from the pop-punk of their youth into more open
musical terrain. In 2004, This Providence released "THE SUNDAY’S BEST" EP, they quickly recorded three songs with local producer
Casey Bates, known for his work with such bands as Forgive Durden, Daphne Loves Derby, and Gatsby’s American Dream. The demos
caught the attention of Washington ’s RocketStar Recordings, who invited This Providence to lay down additional tracks, resulting in the
band’s debut album, "OUR WORLDS DIVORCE." This Providence pulled off the endless highway in the fall of 2005 to devote themselves
to writing songs for what would become their self-titled Fueled By Ramen debut. This Providence have recently begun recording their 3rd
album, their second FBR release.

Decaydance owner Peter Wentz loves his Las Vegas bands. It’s true. After scoring
much acclaim for signing Panic! At the Disco in 2005, he heard about their friends in
The Cab, and signed them as well. The band passed a demo onto Panic! At The
Disco's drummer Spencer Smith and in the span of only a few months, the band
found themselves inking a deal with Decaydance/Fueled by Ramen Records and
writing their debut album. Their debut album was produced by the critically
acclaimed Matt Squire. And they are my age, or younger. Fresh out of high school,
The Cab has already had much success and is going on tour with fellow FBR
/Decaydance band Cobra Starship in early 2008.”I don't know if it's sunk in to me
yet," vocalist Alex DeLeon responds. "A couple of years ago, I was a kid going to
local shows and waiting for hours to see Fall Out Boy and it's so surreal being signed
by the people I look up to," he summarizes. "Everyone over there has been so
welcoming and it really is like one big family; we couldn't ask for anything more."
