About Me



LP launch!
We are launching our LP 'Cross Paths' on the 7th of May at the Toff in Town with two of our most favourite bands in the world- Sly Hats and Flying Scribble , with Mystery Twin DJ sets in between bands! The LP is being released on the lovely Knock Yr Socks Off Records here in Melbourne. So please come celebrate with us and you can see us play our special-occasion light-up toy instruments and wear our fluorescent cat birthday party sunglasses. Well, at least I'll be wearing them...

motifs cd!
