Well Russ, Jimmy and Hagan went to school together from 2000, and Russ, Jimmy and Richard went to music school together a little bit later on. One night even later than that (late 2010 or early 2011) Russ and Hagan were at some Spanish festival in Melbourne and Russ suggested starting a band. Hagan asked his guitar teacher, who happened to be Jimmy, if he'd come along and in Russ's lounge room the three of us wrote our first song. We called it "Roses at Midnight" and haven't played it for about nine months. You can't forget your roots, no matter how hard you try.

Michael Chrisp joined the band a little bit later in the piece, but we are mighty glad to have him and his sparklin' Flea bass.

In between trying to convince ourselves that there's room for more bands in the world, that this isn't some last ditch attempt to escape the (supposedly) harsh realities of day to day life, and that Russell's energy drink habit won't prematurely end his life/our careers, we write and practice and perform music that's designed to make us feel good. And because feeling good is something that most humans are commonly capable of, it might go some way towards making others feel good too.
