Pedro the Lion was an indie rock band from Seattle, Washington, and, for over a decade, the main creative outlet of singer/songwriter David Bazan. The band combined a biting wit with first person narrative to cover both politics and faith. Pedro the Lion was formed by David Bazan in 1995 and released its debut EP Whole in April 1997. Throughout the band's many lineup changes, Bazan remained the primary artist and musician behind the group, singing and playing virtually every instrument on the band's first two full length albums, It's Hard to Find a Friend (1998) and Winners Never Quit (2000). Seldom's Casey Foubert joined Bazan for the band's 2002 effort, Control, playing drums and keyboards and co-writing "Penetration" and "Second Best". Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie was a touring member as well, among many others. Achilles Heel followed in 2004 and featured T.W. Walsh, perhaps the only other individual—besides Bazan—to ever be considered an official band member. All told, the band released four full-length albums as well as several EPs and various 7" singles.
