We play catchy pop songs with touching and often rather amusing lyrics. The topics cover the usual pop far from falling in and out of love to musings on the life of a mayfly.

The live arrangements are typically two guitars, one electric and one acoustic, a violin, a bass guitar, a tambourine and keyboard.

We've played a number of gigs around the uk and denmark and sweden. Do get in touch if you'd like to arrange a gig with us.

Group Members:
  • Matloob: vocal, guitar, bass and harmonica
  • Martin: vocal, guitar, bass
  • Duncan: keyboards and backing vocal
  • Naomi: violin and vocal
  • Nick: guitar
  • Adam: guitar and bass
