Biography - Originally formed in 2007, Ian and Dave began writing together in the spring 'of 2009 laying the roots of what you hear today.

We were joined by Guido in February of 2011 and with the addition of Gary and Graham at the end of November 2011, we now have the solid creative line up required to move the band forward.Our original material is formed on a bed of strong melodies and an array of eclectic influences and we have spent the past few years developing our unique sound.
