Their music blends dark, catchy and epic songs with an intelligent and unique ideology.Forming in 2006, ROMANCE struck a nerve with music fans. KEXP, one of the nations best independent radio stations, quickly jumped on the bands debut EP, WHEN THINGS ARE BETTER, putting it in regular rotation. Led by their single "Paris Is Burning" this was soon followed by many independent radio stations. Readers of THE STRANGER, Seattle's premier music and arts weekly, voted ROMANCE one of the top four up and coming bands in the city.

In 2008 Romance had a line up change with the addition of new drummer Joshua Fant (ex-Post Stardom Depression). They released their debut full length album "The Divide" in 2009 and it quickly climbed to number one on the NorthWest music charts for KEXP. The single "Face On The Sun" was also chosen as the song of the day on KEXP. Romance has toured extensively and have played many high profile gigs, including opening for The Chameleons, Peter Murphy, Sisters Of Mercy and playing the SXSW and Bumbershoot festivals.
