They played their first gig on 25 October 2012 at [[Static]] in Hamilton, while their first Auckland gig was at Tabac Bar in August 2013. Several early demo recordings were released on Soundcloud prior to their first gig, and their debut EP, [[The Trouble with Thompson]], was recorded in January 2015 and released on 28 March 2016. On 4 November 2016, the band were featured on bFM's 'Fancy New Band' slot on the Breakfast Show. Other significant gigs played by the band include the headlining of the [[Hamilton Underground Press]] events [[Bandfandango]] in August 2016 and the [[2nd Annual HUP and Hum Xmas Party]] in December 2016.

The band can trace its origins back to the 1980s, when White and guitarist Greg Edwards attended high school together, at Northcote College, Auckland; the two formed a band together at the time called ''Limited Western Art'', and later played together again while at university in Auckland in ''Yorkie the Bricklayer''. The songs ''Weeds'', ''Thompson is in Trouble'' and ''Ode to the Mountains'', all performed and/or recorded by ''The Scones'', were originally 'Yorkie' songs.
