Akoustik Anarkhy Records founder The Observa was intrigued by the appearance of two foot soldiers from a southern land armed with guitars and rainbow-coloured sticks of rock. 'So who's in the band' he asked the first. 'It's just Sam and me' Rowan replied. That night, with their identity established, the pair begun their assault and they haven't looked back since.
"From a small seed, great things can grow."
Now based in the Capital, the band have gigged regularly in London, Brighton and Manchester supporting the likes of Alfie, Art Brut, Lone Pigeon (Ex Beta Band), Nine Black Alps, The Kooks and Feist and more recently Liam Frost & The Slow Down Family, Spinto Band and The Longcut. They are one of the central bands of Manchester's Akoustik Anarkhy collective - releasing their music through the aA label - and have brought the infamous aA clubnight to London and Brighton which now runs a bi-monthly Saturday night at their local.
Their debut album is expected to drop some time late '08/early '09.
Click the button above to view the video for their debut single 'Sonic Boomerang'. Since it's release, the song has been played out on Radio 1, XFM and BBC6 Music, aswell as the video getting regular plays on MTV2.

Mama Shamone – THESE GUYS AREN’T PLAYING LIVE (except one acoustic) EXCEPT AT GLASTO FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR! http://www. myspace. com/mamashamone “Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar
