The Draft formed soon after the departure of singer/guitarist Chuck Ragan from Hot Water Music. The three remaining members of the band wanted to continue making music together, but decided not to continue under the Hot Water Music name, choosing instead to start fresh.[1][2]

In 2006, The Draft began touring. Their debut album, In a Million Pieces, was released on September 12, 2006.[3][4]

On March 13, 2007, The Draft released a self-titled digital EP through all major music download services.[5]

In mid-October 2007, The Draft released the We'll Never Know/Hard to Be Around It 7" on No Idea Records. The two songs are also available through iTunes.

The Draft reunited for a tour in summer 2013.
