Background


In early 2018, the former BMG president Zach Katz and music producer Robert Deaton expressed an interest in creating a new band. Deaton enlisted the help of Jason Halbert and Jon Shoen to find talents for the band. Within a few months, they recruited 6 singers for the band, the band members are Robert Deaton's son Chris who also plays drums, Simon Dumas on keyboards and guitar, Austin Luther on bass, Caleb Miller on lead guitar, Chad Michael Jervis and Jordan Harvey who both play guitar. Dumas, Jervis and Harvey share lead vocals. Dumas is from Gibraltar, Harvey is from Scotland, while the other four are from the United States. Chris Deaton said that 'Calaway' is the name of someone he once worked with: "Kind of like a Lynyrd Skynyrd story, it's the last name of a person. And then we just threw 'king' on it." The band was signed to BBR Music Group's Stoney Creek Records.
In January 2019, the band released their debut 5-song self-titled EP. The debut single, "World For Two", with its video also premiered prior to the album release. The single reached No. 43 on Hot Country Songs. They opened for the Garth Brooks Stadium Tour in May 2019, and played at the Gibraltar Calling in September. They made their television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in June.
The band also guest appeared in the Australian soap opera, Neighbours, on the 20 August 2019 performing "World for Two" alongside Australia's Got Talent winner Bonnie Anderson.
The band released their first full album, Rivers, which includes the five songs of the EP, in October 2019. They also released a non-album single, a cover of "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)", which they performed on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
In July 2020, the group announced that Jordan Harvey has left to "pursue his own musical journey".
In 2022, the band performed on national TV shows such as Jimmy Kimmel, The Late Late Show with James Corden, TODAY and The Kelly Clarkson Show. They have also opened for Garth Brooks, Rascal Flatts, Gabby Barrett and Scotty McCreery. The band's most recent EP Midnight ushered in a harmonious California Country sound, and led to the release of their newest song on June 10, 2022, titled “When I Get Home” that was produced and co-written by founder, front man, and lead vocalist for the multi-platinum, GRAMMY Award-winning group Zac Brown Band, Zac Brown.
