We grew up… away from cities, and near to lots of untapped history – namely the borderlands between Cumbria and Northumberland/England and Scotland. As well as the Isle of Guernsey and Kent. We are widely spread.

It all started when…Jonathan met Mike, Mike met Jeremy, Jeremy met Alex. We found our newest member when the NME wrongly printed the name of a different band in place of us in the gig listings (our first gig!). We looked them up and fell in love with the guitarist.

If we’re not recording or playing music you’ll find us…travelling up and down the country banging our heads on the roof of a van that smells of death.

We can’t perform unless we have…our voices, we are primarily a vocal band, though we aren’t very good at singing.

One country we’re dying to play live in is…Greenland, my parents led and expedition there in the 70′s to track down some extinct geese.

Our three dream festival headliners would be…Michael Jackson, Steve Reich (collaborating with Destiny’s Child), The Beatles.

You’ll recognise us by our…white boiler-suits and furrowed brows.

We wish we hadn’t…lost a few vital days of recording while we were making the album!

If there’s one thing we’ve learnt it’s…if it ain’t broke, kill yourself.

Give us 30 minutes and we’ll cook a great…Pesto sauce. Mickey makes something called ‘Tunch’ which is ‘between lunch and tea’, which is basically pasta with broccoli and feta cheese, he swears by it and eats it by the metric tonne.

Buy us a drink and we’ll…sing you the whole of Gangsta’s Paradise, in German.

We’re not really into Country, but we do like Conway Twitty.

Our next release is…our debut album Man Alive which comes out on the 30^th of August, but before that MY KZ, UR BF comes out on the 23^rd.
