We are evolving slowly but surely, writing new tunes, getting management organised, playing in venues around the country.

Tony has been playing guitar and singing for years, during that time he wrote a lot of tunes on his acoustic. With the addition of Ben and Matt the started performing all over London. The more recent addition of Dilson Laguna Jr on the guitar has allowed us to expand the songwriting and performance potential, freeing Tony up for exploring his vocal range.

BBC Introducing with Tom Robinson on 6music

They launched on Feb 3rd 2006 at a sold out Jericho Tavern in Oxford.

They are currently focusing on Songwriting for the new EP and getting management on board.
