The band was formed in 2004 by Tizian von Arx, his younger brother César von Arx, Simon Wigger, and Christoph Zurflueh. In the following years, 7 Dollar Taxi played in venues across Europe, supporting bands such as Babyshambles, The Blood Arm, The Blue Van, Maxïmo Park, Madsen, The Automatic, Franz Ferdinand, Grouplove, Metronomy, Moby and many others. They were offered a contract with the London-based Label Upper11 but, after many delays, ultimately, didn't sign.
