Dance Gavin Dance was formed in 2005 following the break up of Farewell Unknown. Feerick had been playing with them for nearly 12 years after having replaced original bassist, Jason Ellis. Feerick would himself leave the band in 2010 but would return in 2012 and would remain playing with them until his passing. Feerick appeared on the band’s studio albums Afterburner, Artificial Selection, Mothership, Instant Gratification, and Acceptance Speech.
