Musical beginnings
Knight has a BA in Audio Production from San Francisco State University. In 2002, he helped form Day One Symphony. The four-member band went on to enjoy a steady growth of popularity in the Bay Area. In 2005, the band released an EP titled A Vicious Circle and went on tour with dredg and Circa Survive. Aaron Axelsen, music director at LIVE 105.3, played tracks from the EP and invited the band to play on air and participate in some Bay Area concerts.
In May 2006, while on their way to a dredg concert in San Francisco, the members of the band met with a road accident. Knight, who was driving, suffered a broken leg and collapsed lung while the rest sustained injuries leading all of them to be hospitalised. The car crash forced the cancellation of the band's scheduled appearance at LIVE 105's annual BFD concert at Shoreline Amphitheater.
