The Story So Far is an American rock and pop-punk band from Walnut Creek, California. The group was formed in 2007. The artists adopted the title from New Found Glory’s song "The Story So Far". The current lineup includes Parker Cannon, Kelen Capener, Kevin Geyer, Will Levy, and Ryan Torf. One of the ex-members Kevin Ambrose left the band after soon its formation.
The initial 5-song EP came out in December 2007 and got a simple name 5 Songs. For some time, the band had a tough time finding gigs.
In 2010, Ambrose left the band because he enrolled in college. William Levy took his place. In March, the group signed a contract with Pure Noise studio. Two months later, artists recorded a new EP, While You Were Sleeping. In November, they presented a split with Maker.
In the spring of 2011, Barret Records released a split by The Story So Far and Morgan Foster. Meanwhile, Pure Noise presented the band’s debut LP, Under Soil and Dirt. It featured 11 tracks, among which were such hits as "States and Minds", "Roam", "Swords and Pens", and "High Regard".
The next album came out in March 2013. The LP called What You Don't See made it into Billboard 200 and settled on the 46th position. The album featured such songs as "Things I Can't Change", "Playing the Victim", "Small Talk", "Empty Space", and others. At that time, many organizers tried to book The Story So Far for private events.
At about the same time, the band worked with Stick Your Guns on a split. The album featured their song “Clairvoyant” and a cover of the song “Loro” by Pinback. Later that year, the group appeared on the cover of the Alternative Press magazine. They were featured in the "100 Bands You Need to Know" list. Next year, the band performed on stage as part of the annual rock tour, Warped Tour 2014.
In April 2014, The Story So Far announced working on an instrumental EP, Songs Of. The album came out in June with the support of Pure Noise. It featured instrumental versions of previous hits, a new single “Navy Blue” and a cover on one of Bob Marley’s songs.
