A brighton four-piece who earned an asbo magazine feature barely six months into playing together. They call their sound floaty indie rock with a dark, grungy edge, and their live sets land heavier than the recordings. Their single soda, out in august 2026, is their most driving release so far.
“we describe ourselves as floaty indie rock, but it's a bit grunge and a bit dark... it's indie rock with a bit of a twist!”

Atwood magazine premiered their single sondheim and bbc introducing has backed them since their first releases. The brighton trio put melancholic, introspective songwriting inside dense guitars and shoegaze-tinted production, quiet one moment and heaving the next. Recent singles include limbo and better on screen.
“We want to make music that takes you somewhere, a journey you can get lost in and hopefully come out the other side feeling like you've experienced something cathartic.”
