History
After meeting each other at Haverford High School, Jeremy Lloyd studied music theatre at Yale University, Samantha Gongol music business at New York University, and Steve Davit music industry at Drexel University. "Whisky", the first song Lloyd and Gongol ever wrote together, describes a woman in control of her own sexuality. They moved on to create songs like "Lips" and "Got It", mixtures of blues, jazz, heavy bass, and delicate vocals. After their first collaboration with Davit, the audience demanded more saxophone, resulting in the sound produced by the duo and their current collaborator.
