I Dont Know How but They Found Me, often shortened to iDKHOW, originated in 2016 as a duo project based in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was founded by singer-songwriter Dallon Weekes, formerly of Panic! at the Disco, and drummer Ryan Seaman. The project was conceived in secrecy, with Weekes and Seaman initially denying its existence while performing in small venues. This approach aimed to avoid exploiting their previous band affiliations and instead build a following based on their new sound. The band’s unique name is inspired by a quote from the movie *Back to the Future* and intentionally uses incorrect punctuation as a stylistic choice.
The project officially emerged from secrecy in August 2017 with the self-release of their first single, “Modern Day Cain,” which quickly charted on alternative music lists. This was followed by “Choke” in October of the same year, also performing well commercially. iDKHOW signed with Fearless Records, releasing their debut EP, *1981 Extended Play*, in 2018, which reached number 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. The band engaged in extensive touring, including opening for established acts like The Aquabats and Dashboard Confessional, and performing at major festivals such as Reading and Leeds, building a significant international presence.
In 2020, iDKHOW released their debut studio album, *Razzmatazz*, further solidifying their sound and expanding their reach with television appearances on programs like *Jimmy Kimmel Live!* and *The Ellen DeGeneres Show*. The album’s success led to several tours, including the Razzmatazzmatour and The Thought Reform Tour. A deluxe version of *Razzmatazz* was released in 2021, featuring additional tracks and remixes. In 2023, Dallon Weekes announced the departure of Ryan Seaman and the band’s signing to Concord Records, continuing iDKHOW as a solo project. The second studio album, *Gloom Division*, was released in 2024, supported by singles such as “What Love?” and a subsequent Gloomtown Tour, showcasing the project’s evolution and ongoing creative output.
