History
2011–2013: Early years
Eddie Anthony and Edan Chai Dover formed the group in 2011, previously working together as a songwriting duo, and made collaborative demos released on SoundCloud. In 2012 the band released two singles, "Dancing Shoes" and "Don't Wanna Wake Up", on their YouTube channel. They announced that their debut EP would come out in early 2013.
In 2013 the band released a cover of "Sweet Nothing" by Calvin Harris on YouTube. They started making covers every Sunday and releasing them on YouTube as a free download called ScoreSundays. They released their lead single to their debut EP, "Not Just Another Way", in early 2013. Not long after the single's release their debut EP was canceled for unknown reasons. It was intended to feature "Not Just Another Way", and unreleased demos including "Hit List", "4 AM", and "Almost".
2014–2015: The Score EP , The Score EP 2 , Where Do You Run EP, and singles
The Score released their debut EP, The Score EP, in 2014, which features earlier songs, "Dancing Shoes" and "Don't Wanna Wake Up". The EP also contained their earlier released covers of "Say Something" and "Holy Grail" as bonus tracks, as well as new songs, "Til The Stars Burn Blue", "Haunted", and "This Beating Heart," and a ScoreSundays acoustic version of "Dancing Shoes". The Score continued to release weekly ScoreSundays throughout the year.
The Score announce the release of their second EP, The Score EP 2, in 2015 with the lead single, "Better Than One". The EP included tracks "Lost You", "Fall For Me", featuring Kate Lynne Logan, "In The Dark", "Real Life", and a remix of "Lost You" with Wavve Pilot.
The duo gained recognition in early 2015, when the British supermarket chain Asda used their single "Oh My Love" in a major advertising campaign titled "Save Money, Live Better". According to Asda, part of the reason why they selected the song was because "they were unsigned and unknown". The song's placement in the advertisement helped The Score gain recognition and "Oh My Love" went to No. 43 on the UK Singles Chart in July 2015. In the same year, the track became the most-detected song from an advertisement on Shazam. The song also appeared in the 2015 film Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip. They released a single, "Catching Fire", shortly after the release of Oh My Love.
After the success of "Oh My Love", The Score signed a record deal with Republic Records. They released their third EP, Where Do You Run, in September 2015. The Score then released their cover of Post Malone's song "White Iverson" shortly afterwards.

After announcing on social media that a new EP would be released, The Score officially released their fourth EP, Unstoppable on September 23, 2016. The title track was later featured in the 2017 Power Rangers film.

In 2018, the song was used in advertising campaigns for Jeep Grand Cherokee. "Unstoppable" was also used in a Dude Perfect video titled "Water Bottle Flip Edition", which came out on July 18, 2016.

2022–2024: Hiatus and Last Legends
From the release of "Bad Days" until December 2023, The Score stopped releasing new music as their members began to work with other artists due to internal issues. During tours in 2022, Dover had family situations and the pair called off multiple concerts as a result.[citation needed]
In 2023, Dover started releasing his own songs and collaborating with other artists under the name Edvn, including Zayde Wolf and Sam Tinnesz. After a hiatus, the band released the song "Deep End" on December 1, 2023, marking The Score's first release together in over a year.

On January 1, 2024, Ramirez announced that he would be releasing music as part of a new band called Unroyal. Dover was notably absent from this, sparking rumors of a conflict between the two among fans. In April 2024, Dover began releasing music under the name Deane, while continuing to release as Edvn.
On October 4, 2024, the band announced Last Legends, which they released on November 8, 2024, which also included the songs "Fighting For", "Better Days", "Redemption Song", and "Superhuman".
