About Me

We started a while back doing the whole comedy/country thing (if such a thing has ever existed) before swapping our acoustics, banjoes and bongos for loud guitars and actual drums. We set about trying to put into words all the magic, sadness, wonder, fear and general mayhem we see and help create every day, with a pinch of fiction thrown in for good measure. We try to write songs that are honest accounts of things we have experienced, witnessed or even once believed to be true. Music gets us up in the morning, stops us from concentrating during the day and keeps us awake at night and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Model Tourist wanted!

We would love to hook up and have a jam with any keyboard players out there, if you can play percussion at the same time even better! We're not looking for a piano player, more like someone ...
