A F T R H R is an alternative rock band. The band was originally formed in Orlando, Florida in 2003 under the name There For Tomorrow. The group originally consisted of four members and was influenced by bands such as Jimmy Eat World, Third Eye Blind, and The Hives.
On November 19, 2014, the band released a statement saying that they were disbanding and that they've been "trying to find themselves as individuals" after slowing things down in 2012. They played two final shows in their home city of Orlando in December 2014.
In late 2015, Maika Maile and Chris Kamrada began collaborating on a new musical project called Afterhour (stylized as A F T R H R). The duo continued the indie direction they had introduced on the Nightscape EP.
There for Tomorrow was formed at a time when all of its members were teenagers in high school, consisting of Maika Maile on lead vocals and guitar, Christian Climer on lead guitar, Jay Enriquez on bass, and Chris Kamrada on drums. The band was originally called "The Kick Off", but after playing numerous local shows, changed their name due to copyright issues. After, Enriquez suggested the name, "There For Tomorrow", where they all agreed as their new name. The band released their debut album Point of Origin in the spring of 2004 without a label, as they were unsigned at the time. Their music began playing on a local radio station in 2006 and they performed showcase concerts, which led to stints on the southeastern leg of the Vans Warped Tour in 2007. After that, they met with James Paul Wisner (Underoath, Paramore), who produced their 2007 Pages EP, which attracted the attention of the alternative rock label Hopeless Records. The band shot a music video for the single "Pages", directed by Chris Grieder.
