The Crawford and Minett brothers whose ages range from 14 to 18 have been performing in venues mainly around Newcastle and the Hunter Valley in Australia since early 2005. Boosted by stage-storming performances on the NRL Footy show at Sydney Entertainment Centre at their then very young ages ranging from 9 to 13, the band has continued to grow and move on to develop their own brand of 70's, 80's sounding classic rock which they have been performing since early 2008.
The band is based in Hinton, a little country town north of Newcastle. They have been together for over four years now, and are committed to writing catchy, kick arse rock songs and taking their music to the world. Not only that, but the band has continued to receive a huge amount of positive wraps wherever they play. Listen to our tunes and catch us live sometime.
