Invite The Wild formed in August of 2012 after the disbandment of Quick Fix. Melody Bickford, David Fish and Chris Goodwin decided to continue on as a band and that is when DJ Taylor (formally of Nigel's Thornberry and Soup Sandwich) was brought in to handle guitar and backup/lead vocal duties. Joe Hodgkins joined the group late in 2016 on co-lead guitar and occasional backup/lead vocals.
