ARE BACK. After playing GLASTONBURY 2009, (NOW What a weekend that was, a great moment for the band), they've had to cease play, due to a serious injury to the lead singer since July. She's now fully recovered, play has resumed and they've been rewarded with a UK tour supporting another US hip hop old skool icon, UGLY DUCKLING on their 2009 UK TOUR.
It all kicks off on 29th October 09, starting at Bucks Uni, but see below for full tour details line up. We'll be doing our daily on the road blogging, so if you want to know how these guys rock as well as , then clicking the blog logo to keep up to speed with all that's rollin in world and add them to your blog favourites.
The tour ends on 23rd November and as part of this tour, are promoting the long, long, long awaited debut single release of "STUCKLIKE" at the end of November. You can get a pre-release download now on and watch this space for details of our launch night for the single.
That's all for now, but if you're outside of the London area, this would be a great time to finally catch in your home town or a town near you.
a 4 piece band that will leave you standing to attention, with music for the future generation. Remember the way Nirvana rocked, the way the Chillis punked and the way Kravitz rolled? Now throw a funked up female with attitude in the mix and is what you get.
Hailing from the edge of Essex/London & Brighton, fronted by ex-Groove Armada front woman, singer/songwriter, Valerie M (aka ), alongside Tom Crofts on bass, Jonny "Hero "Aves on drums, Charlie Curtis on guitars and engineer DJ Lee” Spika” Williams, exploded onto the British music scene with their off-the-wall charisma, ruthless ambition and killer tunes late 2006 and have been captivating audiences since, with their combustible, energetic shows and sheer knack of writing their brilliant brand of Alternative/Electro/Rock.
Steadfastly serving their apprenticeship, the band have gone on to appear as finalists for Channel 4's Road To V 2007, to sharing the stage with the likes of The Guillemots, Piney Girs, Lucie Silva, Soho Dolls, The Magic Numbers, Air Traffic and most recently supporting ICONIC US legends PUBLIC ENEMY in 2008, to name but a few.
Numerous radio appearances and airplay support from BBC Radio 6, Pulserated, Ison and ZEN Fm Australia and European tours, have earned them rave reviews drawing comparisons to Lamb, Portishead, Skunk Anansie, Tina Turner, Janice Joplin and Red Hot Chillis, all flattering, yet still do no justice to the dynamic, progressive electro rock sound that have mastered, leaving even the strongest non believers questioning their own music morals and accepting this new sound of the future.
Heartaches, near death experiences, break-ups and disappointments have blighted this bands emergence, but their never say die attitude has kept them going and believing that everyone can relate to what they write about. “It’s all about the music” Valerie says. “We’ve got so much to say and love watching the crowd go wild with our mish mosh of music we’ve put together, they never thought was possible... It’s magical”
Lately have been tucked away putting the finishing touches to their long eagerly awaited debut album, which is due to crash land in your stereo, and the future looks very bright for this new band, as they now step up to the plate to take their place as ones for the future. Catch the build up to their debut release at an array of festivals in 09 and forthcoming tours.
Be ready to have your audio landscape well and truly painted.
Thanks for the friendship.. Hope you enjoy the music and message behind it. My mission in life is to fight Human Trafficking. understanding the individual pain of others is sometimes to painful for an other individual to touch and that is frightening ...what i mean is that someone whose life is not traumatized and brutalized as a regular sequence of every day events unconsciously seeks the camouflage and shelter of apathy and banality from the reality of such devastating anguish and terror ...but the spirit of young people who are used as sex slaves in the systematized global industry of human trafficking is now reaching out to the human fellowship in hope and desperation and through technology ...it is scary when humanity turns a blind eye to this horror ...its like ignoring genocide whilst it is happening ...what i am asking is that if you hear the cry of these young people who are existing in an environment of torture and brutality each and every day that you then please do not turn away from them ...please reach deeply into your heart and soul and please in 2009 join a movement or become a part of an event that challenges modern slavery in the 21st century ...

Society is afraid of your wild natures afraid of your naturalness, so from the very beginning, it starts cutting your wings.
And the most dangerous possibility in you is the possibility of love.
Because if there is love, you can go even against the whole world.
If you know your being, there is no question of becoming.
All that you could have ever imagined to become you already are.
You are gods who have forgotten who they are.
You are emperors who have fallen asleep and are dreaming that they have become beggars.
Now beggars are trying to become emperors, in dreams they are making great efforts to become emperors, and all that is needed is to wake up! You may be the last generation which has be the possibility to rebel.
And if you don't rebel there may be no more chances.
Humanity can be reduced to a robot like existence.
