History
The Promise Hero was established in 2006 by long time friends and collaborators Bobby Vaughn and Daniel Weiss after the breakup of The Honor Role in 2005, which included vocalist Justin Vaughn, Bobby's brother. The original line-up included Vocalist Bobby Vaughn, guitarist Daniel Weiss, bassist Kevin Buchanan, and drummer Dan Evans. With this roster, the group released its debut EP, The Promise Hero, in 2006. Not long after the release of the group's EP, The Promise Hero underwent a change in its rhythm section by replacing bassist Kevin Buchanan and drummer Dan Evans with Jeff DiLorenzo and Frank Fini, respectively. Members of the band claim they settled upon the name The Promise Hero after it was donated to them by a friend of the group.In 2007, The Promise Hero recorded demos produced by Saves the Day
