His father was a school principal remained basketball coach of ‘Worthington Christian High School’ from 1996 to 2005. His mother used to teach mathematics in Olentangy school district before taking basketball coaching of ‘Olentangy Orange High School’ in 2013.

Again, the track ‘Trees’, re-worked later, found place on the albums ‘Vessel’ and ‘Regional At Best’.

It made its way to several international charts including peaking at #3 on the US Billboard Vinyl Albums and the US Billboard Catalog Albums apart from climbing at #21 on the US Billboard 200.

The fourth studio album of the band, and the second with ‘Fueled by Ramen’ released on May 17, 2015. It was titled ‘Blurryface’ and surpassed its predecessor by leaps and bounds. It remained 2016’s eighth best-selling album and till April 2017, it sold 1.5 million copies in the US.

'Blurryface’ succeeded in debuting at the top of the Billboard 200 chart while two of its singles ‘Stressed Out’ and ‘Ride’ peaked at #2 and #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart respectively.
