They first collaborated on a variety of projects before settling on Stealing Sheep. Together they have been part of a harp Orchestra, part of an electronica art collective and part of a gypsy prog/math rock band whilst they were studying in Liverpool. They are originally from Norway, Canada and UK and now live in Liverpool.

Their first gig as a three girl line up was at an anti-folk night at FACT Gallery in Liverpool as part of a school project. A year later they continued this idea as stealing sheep.

They have been together since summer 2008. In the summer they toured the English Folk Festivals and recently finished a concept tour of Manchester. They are recording an album in February coinciding a live session with Janice Long on BBC Radio 2. They have also began building a miniature set for an animated video for the track 'sleep' which will be finished for the new album release date.

Hi All, really loved your set in support of Mr. Daly at his exhibition opening the other night. Despite the loudmouths at the bar who got a few well timed SSSShhhh’s from me!

Listened to your CD back to back on my way back North and loved it! Sleep is just so dreamy (no pun intended)

Hope to see you live again soon and please check out the Sage in Gateshead as a venue (ask Gary as I think he liked it too!)

Cheers David.
