Made up of Dublin locals Jack Leavey, Louis Christie, Sam Duffy, Rossa Healy and Luke O’Neill, The band have featured on Spotify’s Hot New Bands and Tracy Clifford’s Track of the Week on 2FM, and are garnering rave reviews for their invigorating live shows.

In April 2024 they embarked on their first headline tour of the UK & Ireland in support of Dirty White Lies in March, visiting Galway, Glasgow, Manchester and London as well as a release day show in Dublin.
Their expansive sound is influenced by the likes of Radiohead, Go Go Penguin, Deftones, Cocteau Twins and The Strokes.
