Formed by Nate Greely and Sean Spillane, two Texan transplants in Los Angeles, in 1994, Arlo released their first full length, Up High In The Night, on Sub Pop in 2001. Ryan "Shmedly" Maynes joined the group soon after and contributed songs to the second album Stab The Unstoppable Hero. The group disbanded in early 2004 after the departure of their second drummer (and former child prodigy/session musician) Joaquin Revuelta. Spillane went on to join Midway.
