Formed:
Early 2003 in Leeds

Influences:
Beach Boys, Super Furry Animals, The Kinks, XTC, Beta Band, Blur, Supergrass, 10CC, Small Faces, Dexys Midnight Runners, Madness (but only the good stuff)

Interesting Facts:
Andrew is an ex-BMX Champion.
Nick and Ricky run an exciting club night in Leeds called Pigs.
Simon, Nick and Nick were all in the same class at school.
The 3 track demo was recorded, mixed and mastered by the band in Nick's flat.

Also we're fed up of the American/ Swedish/ Australian bands that have dominatated for the last two years so we decided to be totally different, basically by listening to loads of the stuff listed above and copying it!
