History
The band's first (Welsh-language) album, Howl Griff (2008), was released on the Dockrad label. It received airplay on BBC Radio Cymru and BBC Radio Wales, and the band appeared on S4C shows Bandit and Uned 5 playing songs from the album. Some of the tracks of the album were re-recorded in English and released later in 2008 as The English EP.
The band's second album, The Hum, was released in late 2010 on the Dockrad/Catdog Label and spawned the singles "Bluebirds", "Crash and Burn", "Devotion" and "Sunrise". Tracks from the album were played across BBC 6 Music and described by Lauren Laverne as "bloody lush".
The band's third album, Fragile Diamond, was released in October 2012.
In 2014, the band released new material, a double-A single, We're Still Running / Backyard.
