History

The four friends formed as a group in 2001 during a trip to the east coast. [3] [4] They toured through Canada and recorded the album Live at the Orange Lounge at the Orange Lounge in Toronto in September 2004. The album was released in December that year, [1] and appeared soon after on local radio charts. [5]

Smith moved to Maui, playing there with her band The Throwdowns, leaving the band a trio of McClelland, Stoll, and Winn. [6] The three founded the animal rescue group Ladybird Animal Sanctuary, [6] and continue to perform occasionally to raise funds for animal welfare causes. [7]
