Dave, Owen and Will met in the dying days of the last century whilst they were trapped together, two storeys underground in a London bank vault, surrounded by billions of dollars worth of bonds and bullion. Owen and Will idly talked of getting a band together but the time wasn't right. On their escape they kept in touch and bided their time and when Dave returned from oriental travels and said he was learning the guitar a switch tripped somewhere in the musical universe and the embryonic band began taking shape within the womb of rock and roll. Ricky, a friend of a friend, and now just a friend, was airdropped in to provide the killer rhythms and the final piece of the monkey-puzzle was in place. They have been described as "breezy pop" and "A cross between The Thrills and Iggy Pop".
