Biography
The band were formed in 2007 by Adelaide born musicians Ross McHenry, Lachlan Ridge, Kevin Van Der Zwaag and singer Tara Lynch who still form the core of the band as of 2011. The band came to prominence through gigs with artists such as Eddie Bo, Roy Ayers and Ohmega Watts.
After garnering a following within Adelaide throughout 2008, the band embarked on a national tour in 2009 with soul diva, Marva Whitney. The tour was cancelled when Whitney collapsed on stage at a performance at The Falls Festival in Lorne, Victoria. Despite this setback, the band continued to tour and were signed to Freestyle to release their self-titled, debut album in 2010.
