About
A spit-folk-college-rock five-piece - together for about a year now - playing visceral songs in the guitar-ey vein of Elvis Costello with keys influence coming from Blur and blue-eyed soul from Ben Folds. In terms of progress: twice appeared on Itunes’ “Best of Myspace” podcast, had the featured song on recordoftheday.com, filled the Luminaire and 93ft East in London, short documentary made by a film company here: http://tinyurl.com/bawp46 and we’ve played all over the UK. New EP completing in February.Influences
