In his native Dallas, Texas, Danny Lee Blackwell Rajan Billingsley formerly served as the frontman for several bands, including The Old Explosives, White Light Fever, and Medicine God Box. In 2007, he published the debut album by White Light Fever, known initially as Japanese Auto Clinic, and Columbia Records allegedly courted the group.

Billingsley raised both a Catholic and a Hindu, relocated to Seattle to attend the University of Washington to study comparative religion. He established Night Beats in 2009 after leaving Dallas, which he perceived as a musical wasteland.

He encouraged his high school buddy and former B.B Mercy drummer James Traeger to relocate to Seattle to join Night Beats after experimenting with a few other band configurations.
