The band's music goes back to while Michaels was doing solo acoustic shows and was approached by Mike Park of Asian Man Records about recording the songs in a studio. Michaels decided to do the recordings with a full band and recruited Feshbach, Herrell, and Huguenor. The group named themselves Classics of Love (a name known from the opening track of Last Wave Rockers, recorded by Jesse Michaels' band Common Rider) and recorded the six song EP "Walking in Shadows".

After playing initial shows in California, the band went on a European tour in the spring of 2009. While playing in Southampton, United Kingdom they had equipment stolen from them. The band announced that when they returned from Europe they planned on starting writing on a full-length album.

Their first full-length album was released on February 14, 2012. The album was self-titled and featured the same lineup as their EP.

The band has recently been less active due to lead singer Jesse Michaels attending school in Los Angeles. They have assured their fans that the band is not broken up.
