"We went from four college kids who loved music to four kids who are now living our dream and touring with the very same bands who inspire us as musicians," singer Dan Layus said. "Being the Xbox Live 'Artist of the Month' is a great opportunity for us to play against and chat with our fans around world."

After growing up on the West Coast, lead singer Dan Layus landed at Greenville College in Illinois, where he majored in music. When Dan met Josiah Rosen, the two found a shared passion for bands like Counting Crows and Radiohead. They began playing together and christened themselves Augustana, a name suggested by Josiah, which he thought to be Latin for "a small glimpse of hope," but still isn't 100 percent sure of the meaning.
