After sharing stages with acts such as Portugal. The Man, Sublime With Rome, Florida Georgia Line, and in venues ranging from The Grand Ole Opry to the Vans Warped Tour stages, Mikei Gray founded The Frst intentionally leaving out the "I", as a reminder to keep "fun" at the core of the group's ethic.
Since then, Gray has elicited the support of featured artists such as Kellin Quinn and Matty Best of Sleeping With Sirens, AJ Perdomo and Josh Withenshaw of The Dangerous Summer, and Jesse Hughes & Jennie Vee of Eagles of Death Metal amongst others, including bandmate Laura Dobransky (Bass-Vocals), to realize a free and fierce genre-fluid vision, which Alternative Press heralded as "full of angst-ridden vocals and heavy guitars that are keeping grunge very much alive."
