Average age = 22

Based in sawbridgeworth, hertfordshire; the most rocking middle class, tory voting town since high wycombe and that's a fact.

Our sound is very eclectic, each song is intended to have its own musical identity and as a result we draw influence from many different styles; Jazz,funk,rock,metal,folk,punk,emo etc. I would describe our sound as a small snail that lives inside my ear.

Influences include:
Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Isley brothers, Queen, Yes, Glassjaw, Coheed and Cambria, Sikth, Jimmy Eat World, Manic Street Preachers, Bad Brains, Primus, Mr Bungle, Faith No More, Deftones, Biffy Clyro, Pink Floyd, Clutch.

Career highlight so far?

As an unsigned band, what does playing at
Guilfest mean to you?

Playing at Guilfest

is an amazing oppurtunity for us, it gives us a chance to showcase our music to new people and play alongside some truly amazing musicians such as Sikth and Billy Idol.
