About Me

Una Pong started back in 1998 as a duo consisting of Adam and Ebeth, playing pop music but slowly morphing into something entirely, tirelessly "else." Damien Pratt joined up a couple years later, appearing on the albums I Love You Very Much and ...Presents The Universal Cosmonauts. A protracted period of dormancy lasted until 2008, when the band returned minus Damien but plus the Jennerator. Summer '09 brought Carl (aka Phloemboy) on keyboards.
