History
Sweet Pill formed in 2018 as a senior project while Youssef and Williams were attending Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey.[2][3] They were joined by Kearney a year and a half later.[2] The band released their debut single "Doubt" in March 2019,[4] and their first EP, Lost In It, followed one month later.[5][6] Sweet Pill later moved to Philadelphia during the COVID-19 pandemic, playing their first show as a group with McCall and Cullen at the FDR Skatepark in May 2021.[3]
In March 2022, the group announced their upcoming debut album while releasing its first single, "Blood".[7] Sweet Pill released a second single from the album, "High Hopes", on April 6.[8] The band released the third single from the album, "Diamond Eyes", a few weeks prior to the album's release.[9] The album, Where the Heart Is, was released on May 25, 2022.[10]
Between September and October 2022, Sweet Pill opened for post-hardcore band La Dispute on their US and Canada tour.[11] On September 27, 2023, Sweet Pill signed to Hopeless Records and released a new single titled "Starchild".[citation needed]
