The Mess Hall formed in New York City in the late 2000s around singer-songwriter Adam Pfahler and guitarist Matt Rubano. They played in underground venues with bassist Matt Beck and drummer Alex Duarte. In 2011, they released a debut EP called 'Speak to Me,' and followed it with the full-length album 'Frames' in 2013.
