About Me

Some time in the recent present three people, Steve, Rachel and Brigit, got together to play music... they accidentally invoked the norse gOD of mischief...and thus ensued a flurry of burning amps, graffitied vans of shame, an irksome lack of petrol and a visit from the tender night horse...but the three understood that if they could withstand the impish shenanigans of loki they would be rewarded...and lo, they saw it was good...so they recorded some songs, got played on Radio 1, played leeds festival, got featured on a smalltown america compilation, played a festival in Canada, released a single, got played on MTV2 and VH1...and continue to make musical waves
...and the moral of the story is: amps may topple, guitars may be broken, vans may have to be pushed in the dead of night... but loki will not stop them.
