Originally named The Emergency, We Came As Romans formed of high school seniors Sean N. Zelda, Dave Stephens, Jonny Nabors, Mark Myatt and Joshua Moore and played a number of shows in the Detroit, Michigan, U.S. area. Soon after Jonny Nabors and Sean Zelda were replaced by Sean Daley and Larry Clark and the name changed to We Came As Romans.
The band’s first full length album “To Plant A Seed” was released in November 2009 produced alongside Joey Sturgis, the album made a big debut on the Billboard charts reaching No.6 on the Top Heatseekers chart and No. 25 on Top Independent chart. After the release of the album the band left on the ‘Leave It to the Suits’ tour with Of Mice & Men and Broadway, and featured on the ‘Punk Goes Pop Volume Three’ where they covered Justin Timberlake’s “My Love” and placed We Came As Romans on the national tour circuit.
We Came As Roman’s tour scheduling is a thing to behold and the majority of 2010 and 2011 was spent touring around the majority of the U.S. and Canada as well as a couple months in New Zealand and Australia. The band has a proclivity for elaborately titled tour names including: ‘Scream It Like You Mean It Tour’ and ‘We Are Not Meaningless Tour.’
Released in September 2011 We Came As Romans’ third studio album “Understanding What We've Grown to Be” took a darker turn for the band whilst maintaining the bands overall positivity and brotherhood. The album was greeted with excellent reviews and commercially performed better than its predecessor, reaching No. 20 on the Billboard Top 200. Following the release, the band continued their pattern of relentless tour scheduling travelling to UK/Europe, Australia, the Philippines, Japan, Russia, as well as North and South America, alongside the likes of The Used, Megadeth, NOFX, Suicide Silence and The Devil Wears Prada.
The band’s most recent and most popular album “Tracing Back Roots” has solidified the band's position in the pop/punk genre and has seen lead singer Dave Stephens leave the screaming voice behind entering a new era of wider accessibility to their music.
These guys were great. First saw them at Warped Tour 2016. They absolutely slayed it. Great breakdowns, great energy, and a great message. My favorite song they played was Alive.

We Came As Romans always puts on a great show. If you're looking for a feel good, upbeat concert WCAR is definitely a show to see.
They sound great live and always engage the audience to make you have a great time. They have been on a few Warped tours in the past, but I suggest seeing a show that they are headlining so you can focus all your attention towards them.
From the beginning to now, even after many band member changes and changing their sound, they have always been a great band.
Go rock out to one of their shows! You won't regret it.

Saw Varials 2 yrs back! Bada$$!!! Can't wait to see them again!! They sound just like the tracks! I was so excited they did South of One. They had a great line-up. Saw them right before covid hit and thankful I did. Can't wait to see them back in Houston Tx!

I've followed Cane Hill since the start of this year and loved every single one of their songs. They didn't disappoint live! They sound exactly as they do on the album, and their stage presence is so powerful it was hard to believe they were a support act! Will definitely be seeing them again when they're back in Wales
