Introduction[edit]
Before You Exit is an American Pop rock band from Orlando, Florida, formed in 2007. Since 2007, the band's constant members have been lead vocalist and guitarist Connor McDonough, guitarist and back-up vocalist Braiden Wood and drummer Thomas Silvers. The name Before you Exit was originally written in texting lingo denoted by "B4UXit" from which it was changed into full text. The meaning that developed for Before You Exit's name was that people should make a difference in the world. In 2008 the band replaced their bass guitarist with Connor's younger brother Riley. Their latest addition to the band is the youngest of the McDonough brothers, Toby with an announcement made in August of 2012. As part of that announcement a restructuring of the band was revealed in which Connor, Riley and Toby McDonough would be the main faces of the band with Braiden and Thomas being part of the live band.
