About Me



We are currently writing and recording, whenever we have the time.
New tracks will be coming along. Please keep coming back to check.

Huge thanks to our friends for helping us believe in ourselves and overcome our demons. Your love and support means so much to us.
The Future?
Who knows....

We would love to finish an album, god knows it's been a long time coming. We have enough material, all we lack is time, but we're commited to doing this right, so you never know.
The Past?
Who cares....

Former members of late 80's / early 90's indie bands Crashing Dream and Melt. Played a bunch of gigs, had fun, got disillusioned - the usual story.
