The lineup at that time consisted of Jessica Martins (Vocals, Keys, Guitar), Dan Molad (Vocals, Guitar, Drums), David Lizmi (Bass), and Tom Deis (Vocals, Guitar). The band toured regionally through the Northeastern United States and gained a strong following in their then hometown of Boston. In 2007, the band signed to California-based label Sidecho Records, and began to garner lots of attention from various music blogs, zines, and critics after Death Cab for Cutie guitarist Chris Walla called them his "new favorite band"〔(SXSW.com )〕 in his column in Under the Radar Magazine, an Independent Music publication. Sidecho released the band's debut full-length album, Say Something, recorded earlier that year in Austin, Texas with Spoon drummer and producer Jim Eno, on September 25, 2007 in the United States. Additionally, Kurofone Records released the album in Japan. The album was met with praise from prominent Independent Music publications such as Pitchfork Media, who rated the album a 7.7/10 and called the album.〔(Pitchfork: Album Reviews: Via Audio: Say Something )〕 "a catchy pop record that's serious: not gloomy, not mournful, and not pretentious. It's serious and earnest, it's occasionally sad, but there is such a beautiful gloss over everything that it sticks, hurts, and feels delicious." The band has toured extensively in the past two years, including tours through North America with acts such as White Rabbits, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, and Jukebox The Ghost, as well as a brief tour of Japan supporting Spoon.〔(WE LOVE TOKYO! - Via Audio's MySpace Blog | )〕 The band has also played at numerous festivals including the SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas, the Monolith Festival in Denver, Colorado, and the CMJ Music Showcase in New York City, where Spin.com named them "one of the nine hottest bands playing CMJ".〔(The 9 Hottest New Bands Playing CMJ 2008 | SPIN.com )〕 In 2007 Drummer, Guitarist, and co-vocalist Dan Molad left the group to pursue other projects. Molad was replaced as the band's live drummer by Adam Sturtevant, with Deis (Guitar) and Martins (Guitar, Keys) remaining on lead vocals, and Lizmi remaining on Bass. Via Audio released their second full-length album titled ''Animalore'' on Undertow Music on March 9, 2010; it was also produced by Spoon's Jim Eno.
