In August 2012, younger brother Toby McDonough joined the group, and they released their third EP I Like That the following year, featuring one of the group’s most popular songs “Settle For Less.” Before You Exit continued touring extensively, building up an international fanbase. 2016 saw the release of the EP All the Lights, followed by 001_love and 002_pain in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
