The current line-up consists of: Jason (vocals/rhythm guitar), Janell (vocals/keys), Jordan McGee (drums), Logan MacKenzie (guitar) and Jedidiah Lachmann (bass).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Please Welcome Jordan McGee )〕 At the time of writing, they have released three studio albums, 2007's ''Your Eyes Light Up'', 2011's ''Emergency'' and 2013's "More Than You Think" as well as three EPs, 2008's self-titled ''The Ember Days EP'', which came shortly after their move to America, 2010's ''Finger Painting EP'', and 2014's "The Ember Days Live".

The campaign succeeded in raising over $35,000 by August 1, 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Kickstarter">url=http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2002144677/help-the-ember-days-make-their-best-record-yet )〕 After the successful Kickstarter campaign, the band began pre-production, and began recording in September 2012. The successful campaign resulted in their newest album, "More Than You Think", which was officially released at Parachute Music Festival in Hamilton, NZ on January 25, 2013. It became available to the general public on January 29, 2013. The album is produced by Paul Moak, Co-Produced by famous Christian music producer Ed Cash and features Zac Farro as a writer on the song "Face in the Dark". He also adds his drumming talent to that of Jordan MacKenzie on some of the songs. The album's title and songs were inspired when Janell was diagnosed with Lupus before cancelling their ''Emergency'' album tour. The band wanted to show that there is "more than you think" going on in the lives of people around us. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Ember Days」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
