About Me

We are a six-piece band!

There are 2 full length recordings: 2003's OUR SUMMER DEMO PROJECT and 2005's THIS NARROW ESCAPE....both are available at GROOVES RECORDS ...check out their myspace!

We play around London and sometimes Toronto. I used to have a van(you can see it in the pics section) but she had to be put down last september. Her name was bridget.
