The members of the vibrant dance-rock duo I Dont Know How But They Found Me (sometimes shortened to IDKHow or IDK) knew each other for years before they formed in secret in Salt Lake City, Utah in 2016. Late that year, they played a few shows in the Los Angeles area before word of the project eventually spread. The band released their first single, "Modern Day Cain," in August 2017, following it a month later with "Choke." In August 2018, they signed with Fearless Records and made their label debut with "Do It All the Time."
