History
The band was first started by brothers Rob and Tom Snelgrove and Callum Lukey; all friends since school.
With Callum on guitar accompanied by Rob on keyboard and Tom on vocals, they would get together once a week to jam.
After a couple of months, the boys decided that instead of just covering other artists' songs, to try their hand at writing their own material.
After a lot of cigarettes, alcohol and screwed up sheets of paper, they came up with something they liked.
Pleased with the result, they wanted to take the band further by recruiting bass player Tony Guest, who they have also known since their days at school. More months passed and more songs were written. Tom would write the lyrics and the band arranged the songs together before recording them on to 8 track cassettes.
The next step was finding a drummer as so far, they had just been using computer generated drum loops. Jordan Weller was the final member to join the band after drumming for the boys at a local hall where they practiced.
Together the boys have gone on to write more songs and record at Square Head Studios in Newington and hope to record there again soon.
