Archive material and source history
Punchline formed in 2005 with Jake Stoker on vocals and guitar, Sam Hayes on bass, and Emily Jones on drums. Their name came from the final line of a poem, which felt right for a band interested in how words carry weight. They put out their first album, 'Echoes of the Past,' in 2007, followed by 'The Weight of Shadows' in 2010.
In 2012, they released 'Arras,' a song about a World War I battlefield in northern France. It became their most well-known track, though its subject matter drew some criticism about how war themes get handled in popular music. Alongside 'Arras,' their catalog includes songs like 'Castaway,' 'Coyotes In B Major,' and '21 Forever.'
They kept making music after that, sticking with their lineup and their focus on lyrics. The conversation around 'Arras' didn't really define them, but it's the song people still talk about.
