History

Pony Up! was formed on New Year's Eve 2002. The members were bassist Lisa Smith, drummer Lindsay Wills, keyboardist Laura Wills, guitarist Sarah Moundroukas, and vocalist Camilla Wynne Ingr.[5][6] The group released their debut, self-titled EP, Pony Up! (which included their song "Matthew Modine") in 2005, via Steve Aoki's label, Dim Mak.[7][8]

In April 2006, Pony Up released their first full-length album, Make Love to the Judges with Your Eyes.[9] To promote their debut, the band toured Australia in the summer of 2006, where their single "The Truth About Cats and Dogs (Is That They Die)" would later be voted No. 47 on Triple J's Hottest 100.

In September 2008 Pony Up supported The Mountain Goats on tour. Lisa Smith and Laura Wills joined the touring lineup of The Dears.

The band's third album, Stay Gold, was released in the spring of 2009.[10]
