Career

Dost began his musical career as a member of the band Anathallo, which was formed in 2000 at Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, with Dost joining in 2003. He left the band halfway through the writing album Canopy Glow in 2006; he has said he left because the band had relocated to Chicago and was not able to move with him.

Dost began working on a solo album, Columbus, after leaving Anathallo. It was based on a musical he had written about Christopher Columbus' life in 2005. "The story is a comedy of sorts," the journalist says, taking preposterous liberties with Christopher Columbus' legendary tale. . . Columbus takes a strange tale and creates a heartfelt world for it."

Dost, along with Michael Nau (of Page France and The Cotton Jones Basket Ride), Nate Ruess (of Anathallo), Chris Fafalios, and Steve Soboslai produced the album. Both physical and digital copies of the album were released in 2009.

Nate Ruess (former frontman of The Format) asked Dost to join him and Jack Antonoff (of Steel Train) in a new band, which became Fun. Because their former bands had toured together, dost knew the two bands already knew them.

While having fun. Dost's debut album, Aim and Ignite, was based in Michigan, although Ruest lived in Phoenix, Arizona, and Antonoff in New Jersey.

It's amusing. "We Are Young," the band's first top hit single, was co-written by Dost, Antonoff, and Jeff Bhasker, the band's producer, on his second album, Some Nights.

In addition, Dost produced an original score for the beginning of the "Carry On" music video in 2012.

He made the soundtrack to the film The D Train, which was released in 2015. There is also a tribute to his Fun! Jack Antonoff, a bandmate of mine, was in charge of the band.

Dost has said in late 2015 that he wants to perform new music soon.

In an interview with the Metro Times on April 20, 2016, Dost said that he's "finishing an album" and monitoring some films and TV shows in the interim. It's been amusing to play with music in a variety of ways."

"I'm really influenced by '60s pop, but I also love playing with experimental sounds," Dost said about his music. I like the Beatles, I like musical theatre, and Drake is my favorite performer.

"Where Did They Go" was Dost's first album on April 26, Dost performed a new song titled "Where Did They Go." On April 29, Dost will perform "Where Did They Go" alongside an unreleased song titled "Young Republicans" at the Detroit Music Awards. These songs have not been released as singles.

Dost also creates dog songs.
