Five Times August started in Philadelphia around 2006. The name came from the novel "The Time Traveler's Wife," and the early lineup had Zach Lind on vocals and guitar, Ryan McLaughlin on guitar, Bryan Bonk on bass, and Dan Hubbard on drums.
Their songs like "January Song" and "Any Time, Any Day" mixed indie rock with folk and pop touches. The 2010 single "Any Time, Any Day" got some attention, though there were claims about it that the band disputed.
They put out albums including The Long Road Home in 2007, Wide Open Spaces in 2009, and Resilience in 2017. Dave Snyder joined on guitar around 2012.
