Panic At The Disco Biography
Truly a group of their times, Panic! At The Disco was discovered shortly after they posted some demo tracks on the internet.
It all started with guitarist Ryan Ross and drummer Spencer Smith, teens living in the suburbs of Las Vegas, learning to play their instruments by covering Blink 182 songs. When they decided it was time to move ahead, they recruited classmates Brent Wilson, bass, and Brendon Urie, guitar/vocals, to form a quartet.
"We started off learning to play our instruments by doing Blink 182 covers. They were one of the first bands we got into." ~ Ryan Ross
The fledgling group soon adopted the name Panic At The Disco, after a Name Taken and Smiths song. Practicing in the living room of Spencer Smith's grandmother, it wasn't long before the band had a couple tracks they wanted to be heard. But how could they draw the attention they desired? Though it may seem like a novel idea to many, for high school kids of the new millennium it was a simple solution - they posted a couple tracks online on a site devoted to Decaydance, a label belonging to Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz.¹
