History

2011-2013: Formation

In 2011 when Dan Donegan and Mike Wengren's band Disturbed was on hiatus, Dan began to intensely miss touring and recording. He began writing songs on his own and later reached out to Evans Blue lead vocalist, Dan Chandler, in attempt to collaborate.[4] When the two had enough material to record, Donegan approached Wengren about forming a side project.[5] The three entered the recording studio to put together some songs.

To complete the Fight or Flight lineup, Ra’s Sean Corcoran joined to play bass and back vocals. In addition, Bellevue Suite's Jeremy Jayson joined to play guitar and back vocals, completing the band.[6] Fight or Flight signed with Warner Bros. Records in 2013.[7] As Fight or Flight began as a side project, the band members quickly began to experiment with different acoustic guitars and electronics.[3]

2013-present: A Life by Design?

After signing a deal with Warner Bros. Records in 2013, Fight or Flight released their debut single “First of the Last.” The single began receiving radio airplay on May 21, 2013.[8] On May 7, 2013, Fight or Flight’s debut album,A Life by Design?, was made available for pre-order on iTunes, including an instant download of the band’s first single, “First of the Last.”[5] A Life by Design?, was officially released on July 23, 2013 via Warner Bros. Records.[9]
