Disq began while bassist/vocalist Raina Bock and guitarist/vocalist Isaac deBroux-Slone were in middle school. In 2016, Disq independently released their first project, an EP titled Disq 1.[1] After this release, the band returned in 2020 as a five-piece, now featuring guitarist/keyboardist Shannon Connor, guitarist Logan Severson and drummer Stu Manley, having signed to Saddle Creek Records.[2]
The band announced their debut album in 2020 titled Collector.[3][4] The album received positive reviews.[5][6] In mid-2022, Disq announced their second full-length album, Desperately Imagining Somewhere Quiet, which would be the first of their albums to feature equally split songwriting and lead vocal contributions from deBroux-Slone, Bock, Connor and Severson.[7] The album was released on October 7, 2022, to generally positive reviews.[8]
