Founded by Emma Wigham (drums/lead vocals) and Mark Jasper (guitar/vocals), the band are known for their frenetic live shows, relentless tour schedule, and their distinctive nouveau post-punk sound.

The band have also had to endure a frustrating number of line-up changes but were joined by permanent bassist Estella Adeyeri, who is also a member of Big Joanie and Charmpit
