The band was formed in 2001 as a side project to The Operation, an alternative band active from 1999 to 2001 that shared most of its members with mewithoutYou.{{cite web |last1=Flores Alvarez |first1=Olivia |title=The Gospel of mewithoutYou |url=https://www.houstonpress.com/music/the-gospel-of-mewithoutyou-6544137 |website=Houston Press |access-date=February 24, 2021 |date=February 22, 2007 |archive-date=December 16, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171216173233/http://www.houstonpress.com/music/the-gospel-of-mewithoutyou-6544137 |url-status=live }}{{cite web |last1=Fryberger |first1=Scott |title=There Is Hope For A Tree Cut Down |url=https://www.jesusfreakhideout.com/cdreviews/ThereIsHopeForATreeCutDown.asp |website=Jesus Freak Hideout |access-date=May 2, 2021 |date=November 21, 2009}} The debut demo EP by mewithoutYou, Blood Enough For Us All, was released in 2000, the year before the band was officially founded. The first undisputed release by the band was I Never Said That I Was Brave which was released on Kickstart Audio in 2001. Over the next year, the band signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released their debut album, [A→B] Life.{{cite web |last1=Brown |first1=G.

In 2004, mewithoutYou released their second album Catch for Us the Foxes, which was their first album to chart, reaching number 13 on the Top Christian Albums chart.
Brother, Sister, mewithoutYou's third album (released in 2006), was moved away from the emo and hardcore punk influences of their earlier work and featured less abrasive vocals by Aaron Weiss.{{cite web |last1=Shultz |first1=Brian |title=Brother, Sister |url=https://www.punknews.org/review/5681/mewithoutyou-brother-sister |website=PunkNews |access-date=February 24, 2021 |date=September 29, 2006 |archive-date=August 11, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200811220349/https://www.punknews.org/review/5681/mewithoutyou-brother-sister |url-status=live }} Brother, Sister was the first mewithoutYou album to chart on the Billboard 200. With It's All Crazy! It's All False! It's All a Dream! It's Alright in 2009, the band shifted genres entirely, recording an album that is almost entirely acoustic and has been compared to "campfire songs".{{cite web |last1=Fryberger |first1=Scott |title=It's All Crazy!

The band signed with Run for Cover Records in 2015 and released Pale Horses the same year.{{cite web |last1=Zimmerman |first1=Jeremy |title=mewithoutYou signs to Run for Cover Records; watch a haunting Instagram teaser vid |url=https://thekey.xpn.org/2015/03/17/mewithoutyou-signs-run-cover-records-watch-haunting-instagram-teaser-vid/ |website=WXPN |access-date=February 28, 2021 |date=March 17, 2015}} They released both their seventh studio album,
