Artist History Started in 2000, the band has gone from strength to strength with their current lineup. The band won a Showcase competition in Summer 2000, beating some much older, wiser, and more established acts. They won studio time, which was enought to record their EP, Scotch in the Mediterranean. Since then, they have all been pretty busy with university commitments, but have now decided, prompted by requests from fans, to do more gigs and perhaps get recording again.
