She later asked Katey and Ryan to join her and sing harmony on her album, which sparked their interest to become a trio. In 2016, they opened for LeAnn Rimes and toured the U.S. Katey later got married and now lives in Chicago, which makes working as a trio difficult. The Bundys are the first trio to audition for "The Voice" and they are hoping this opportunity will bring the band back together.

At 13, Maelyn started voice lessons and became heavily involved in musical theater. At 17, she was encouraged to try Broadway and her parents moved with her to New York City to give it a shot.
