History

The band released their self-titled debut album on their own label, Laser Ghost Recordings. Despite the lack of a publicity campaign, they received support from disc jockey Steve Lamacq and their debut sold more than 5000 copies by "word of mouth." [1] [2] The band released their follow-up album, Lights, produced by band member Michael Savage and engineered by Tim Allen and Get the Blessing bassist Jim Barr, on 2 December 2013, via Invada Records. [1] [3] [4] [5]

The band's song, "Fragile" was remixed by English composer Clint Mansell. The remix was eventually released as a limited edition single for Record Store Day. [1] [2] [6]

The band opened for the French electronic music act College in 2013. [3] They also toured with French post-rock/shoegaze band Alcest in early 2014 in Europe. [2]

In October 2023, they released a new single, "How Lost", and then, in November 2023, "Mixtape Days," each from their forthcoming album How Lost.
