    Artist History
    Formed originally at Chesterton secondary school in Cambridge (1997), where we played in school concerts to many middle class parents' horror. We arrived at the current line up in December 1999, after half a year of trying to establish ourselves on the local music scene. During this time we only ever played in our hometown Cambridge as we did'nt have the transport to play anywhere else. With an average age of 17 we now intend to change that as soon as we can as Cambridge is just a little city in East Anglia after all.
