Biography

Formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 2006, the band is composed of James Allan (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rab Allan (lead guitar), Paul Donoghue (bass guitar) and Caroline McKay (drums). Their music is influenced by artists such as 'Wall of Sound' producer Phil Spector and other, more recent, bands which share that same aesthetic such as My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus and Mary Chain. The band's line-up came together in early 2006, and later that year were seen for the first time by Scottish music industry mogul Alan McGee at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut club in Glasgow.
