Some of Gentlemen Hall's members attended Berklee College of Music, where they were known as “those gentlemen down the hall.”The first radio station to play one of their songs was Boston's WFNX. Boston's 92.9 also played tracks throughout the summer, which helped the band gain attention.

Two years later in 2012, the magazine would award them "Boston's Best Act". In 2011 the band recorded the EP, "When We All Disappear," with producer Michael Seifert and mixed by Michael Seifert and Tony Maserati, and shortly thereafter began touring in support of their freshman EP. The band made their national television debut when they performed live on the Billboard Awards on the television network ABC on May 22, 2011. Ice cream company Ben and Jerry's has also created a signature smoothie in the band's name, available throughout its Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts locations.
