Their songs are known for their chunky guitar, powerfully driven bass and drum beats, tons of attitude with a feminine touch. They really know how to bring their highly alternative "chic sound" to town. All standing at nearly 6 foot each they are not just a pretty face......They know how to kick arse on stage!
Three sisters a few years apart moved from a working class suburb in Geelong to sunny Queensland, leaving their young childhood memories of heaters Pink Floyd and acoustic Guitars, to spend the rest of their 50ft growing years as brats of their local music scene. Their parents as a performing blues group organized rock festivals, blues clubs, a local music newsletter, and are still involved in the local radio station and music scene.
TV in their household was unheard, instead a PA set up in the lounge room. By the end of their childhood they were quite comfotable playing different instruments and jamming out their childish pre-teen nonsense. Although they loved all styles, as long as its done well, they developed the passion for hardcore punk and metal and with their blues influenced upbringing, they honed into the development of their vocal technique, playing style and songwriting skills.
