In Ian they’ve also a songwriter who can’t help but use his band as a platform to air his anxieties about the world around him. “I would never pigeonhole us as a ‘political band’,” he explains. “I just write about things I see and hear that upset me. We’re not preaching at
anyone or trying to change the world. We’re just saying these are the things that affect and worry us. They’re too important not to talk about, whether in conversation or in rock’n’roll. That’s all we try to do.”

The band are a hardworking DIY garage act, having self released three albums and toured in the U.K. and North America, playing SXSW and the Canadian Music Fest, Camden Rocks Festivals and Club NME at Koko. They also supported Franz Ferdinand and Sparks, Frank Turner and Paulo Nuntini on the main stage at the 2015 Croatian InMusic festival.

New album 'Vices' is released in May 2017, with the band touring extensively across the UK. and a few European shows.
