Joe Biggs, Jack Pilston and Elliot Benoist.

Shoegaze pop/indie rock/alternative/ 80's influenced erring on the side of the The Smiths and The Cure.

We are into a lot of music, 60's psychedelia, 80's shoegazing. Bowie, Joy Division, Foals.

What do you hope to achieve in music?
To inspire other musicians and to leave behind timeless pieces of music, like our heroes.

Having the chance to play alongside some of our favourite bands such as We Are Augustines, Skaters and Temples. 

And what’s the moment you want to forget?
Luckily we have been extrememly fortunate when playing so nothing bad has happened yet! We await the moment when Smeds falls off stage! 

If you had to choose just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
It would be our next single from our EP which is due to be released in September, Someone to try for (die). It gets the best response live and represents all the hard work we have put in over the last year. 

Where can we listen to it?

Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say about your band that I forgot to ask?

We are gearing up to the EP launch which we finish recording later this month at safehouse studios (foals) produced by Tim Roberts and Kit Moneth of Trophy Wife. We will also release our video for the single then aim to tour the UK from September to December so keep an eye out for dates.
