About Me

Formed in 1999 in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, at the age of 14. Played constantly for almost 2 years, when we decided to move to Aberdeen. We then built up a good local following. Supported the likes of, Proud Mary, Cosmic Rough Riders, The Paddingtons, Glas Vegas, The Glitteratti. We were offered to support Franz Ferdinand also, but the gig fell through for circumstances out with our control. Gutted! Now we are in Glasgow, and after a headlining show in Rockers, we are looking forward to playing many more gig's here, and all over the UK. Our first EP was released in March 2006 called 'How High'. We had a single released in September 2006 called 'See The Sun'. A new EP will be out this summer, followed by our debut album soon after. Titles and release dates to follow.
