They took an adventurous and eccentric move to promote their music: the musicians connected to bassist of Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz and sent him the link to their official wed-site. However, when the members of Summer League heard Brendon's singing during the rehearsal they gave his the place of the lead vocalist unanimously and changed the name of the band for Panic! At The Disco. Initially, Urie tried for the place of the guitarist as Ross was the soloist. In order to replace the musicians that left, Ross and Smith invited bassist Brant Wilson and their school friend Brendon Urie. The band included also two of their friends that later left. Their 2005 debut album, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, reached number 13 on the US Billboard 200, and has sold more than 2.2 million copies since its September 2005 release, spearheaded by the quadruple platinum top 10 hit single, 'I Write Sins Not. Later they took part in a number of minor teenage groups and formed their own command - Summer League.Īt the Disco is an American rock band that originated in Las Vegas, Nevada. Two childhood friends - guitarist Ryan Ross and drummer Spencer Smith - founded this band after they got involved in rock culture and covered the songs of Blink 182 since they were thirteen.
