History

The band released their self-titled debut album on their own label, Laser Ghost Recordings. Despite the lack of a publicity campaign, they received support from disc jockey Steve Lamacq and their debut sold more than 5000 copies by "word of mouth." The band will be releasing their 2013 follow-up album, Lights, produced by band member Michael Savage and engineered by Tim Allen and Get the Blessing bassist Jim Barr, on 2 December 2013, via Invada Records.

The band's song, "Fragile" was remixed by English composer Clint Mansell. The remix was eventually released as a limited edition single for Record Store Day.

The band opened for the French electronic music act College in 2013. They also toured with French post-rock/shoegaze band Alcest in early 2014 in Europe.

Nemone sits in for Lauren Laverne and is joined by The Fauns for a live session in the BBC 6Music studios, 3 December 2013
