They blend samples, synths, live vocals and guitar both in the studio and onstage. Onstage they are usually accompanied by drummer Abel Benito.
They plan to self-release a debut album entitled 'How The Light Gets In' later this year. They are playing gigs in the Dublin area in the coming months, stay tuned to this site for details.
thanks for the support...please check out the info ... this could well be the last vote we get!! All other EU countries have been denied a vote on this ( since it would never pass!! ) sadly for them they couldnt get round the Irish constitution which assures us a vote please watch this video... its all the stuff our government is not telling us about the lisbon treaty..u will understand why.
