About Me

We are an indie, pop quartet situated in Cambridge. There were once 5 of us, but now there are 4. We write songs that we like, and if others like them too then that's a bonus. We take influence from many different bands and people who like these bands, may like us. We have only been together properly since October time in 2007, and have gigged around the area. Before the band formed properly, Jake, Al, and Steve would practise as a three piece, writing basic songs and getting an idea of what kind of band they would like the progress into. They then recruited Sam the bassist and another member who is no longer with us, and began to write and gig as a more serious band. Now as a 4 piece we are concentrating on growing as a band and making a name for ourselves if possible.
