Hstory of Hey Monday
Hey Monday was formed in March 2008 after Cassadee Pope and Mike Gentile’s formed band Blake broke up. Pope and Gentile wanted to continue playing music and began holding auditions for a new band around their local Florida Music scene. Pope and Gentile quickly recruited rhythm guitarist Alex Lipshaw and drummer Elliot jammes. Soon after ward they enlisted bassist Michael “Jersey” Moriarty and Hey Monday was formed .


Departures of Elliot James and Michael "Jersey" Moriarty
In 2009 Elliot James left the band. In August 2010, Michael "Jersey" Moriarty made the decision to depart from Hey Monday. The band reported on their myspace that the band member left on good terms and they would miss his presence in the band.
They were discovered when Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz heard one of their demos while he was in the Crush Management office. Wentz wanted to sign them to his label, Decaydance, but Columbia Records was also interested so the band ended up signing a joint deal with both labels. They recorded their debut album, Hold On Tight, throughout the Summer of 2008 and it released later that Fall on October 7. Soon after their debut album dropped, Hey Monday began touring with the likes of The Academy Is..., All Time Low, We The Kings, NeverShoutNever, The Cab, This Providence, A Rocket To The Moon, and Cash Cash. That following year they supported Fall Out Boy on both their major U.S. and international tours. Their popularity grew and the band went on their first headlining tour with This Providence, The Friday Night Boys, Stereo Skyline, and The Bigger Lights as support. They also headlined a few dates in Europe. In the fall of 2009 they supported All Time Low on the Glamour Kills Tour.

Beneath It All (2010–present)
Hey Monday spent the beginning of 2010 to finish writing and recording their upcoming album, Beneath It All. After the writing and recording process, they went on the 2010 Alternative Press Tour with 'The Summer Set', 'Every Avenue', 'The Cab' and 'NeverShoutNever'. They also played Bamboozle's Main Stage on Sunday, May 2. On June 24, they officially announced Beneath It All and it now up for pre-order on their site with a release date of August 17. New songs entitled "Wish You Were Here" and "Hangover" were recently released. On July 8, Cassadee Pope Announced the release of a new song on twitter, entitled "Hangover." The song was released on their website heymondaymusic.com as they promised to release a new song when their facebook reached 200,000 people. On July 23, Cassadee Pope announced that Beneath It All will now be released as a 6 Song EP rather than a full length album. She also said that a full length album will be out very early next year and they will be touring for a longer period of time. Anyone who previously preordered any Beneath It All package before this announcement was not, and will not be charged for it and will have to re- preorder, as the package has changed. I Don't Wanna Dance was released on iTunes and Napster on July 27.
Beneath It All was released nationwide on August 17 and debuted at #25 on the Billboard 200 selling 14,502 copies in the first week.
Hey Monday performed their single "I Don't Wanna Dance" and another song from their album Beneath It All titled "Wish You Were Here" on Jimmy Kimmel live on September 22, 2010.
