About Me

Our little dream is alive, the stars our destination... If you still need proof, reality based experience of us is possible at an intimate venue soon. Please send and receive electronic messages and let us know what you love/hate. Chicks are leaving the nest, ever wet behind the ears, faltering onwards and learning to perform small aerial tricks. We've been laughing a lot and seeking out inspiration all over the place- the results of which are here for you to listen to. We'd love to see you at one of our gigs - don't think twice it's alright ... Also if you want us to play somewhere/sometime, let us know, we're up for almost anything ...

If you'd like a hard copy of our latest 'will it grow back? EP' with original art by Laura then give us a shout and we'll get it to you.

Alternatively, you can listen to more of our music on last.fm and facebook

against the pop shield

We're currently recording a new ep with 4 tracks on it. We were thinking that giving it a name might be a good idea this time (keeps things interesting). Any ideas? And no, 'utter shite' won't fly I'm...

Crikey the christmas gig 19th December...

Just got bigger. Since the promoter forgot to book any other bands to fill the time, and we feel it may be a bit self-indulgent to prog it up for 3 hours (although we obviously could), two/three ...
