A rock band from Kingston upon Thames, England, formed in 2006. The band consists of Lead Singer and Guitarist Joseph Prendergast, Backing vocalist and Drummer David Catmur, Bassist Tom Coulson-Smith and Keyboardist and Sampler James Eliot-Field. Their sound has been described as “Pop songs for Rock Kids”, and is characterized by their carefully balanced mixture of heavy abrasive instrumentation and Significant Melodic Pop sensibilities which are brought together in simple but constantly progressing song structure which incorporates very raw, at times dissonant, rock instrumentation and odd time signatures.
In 2009, the band had signed a record deal with independent label Hassle Records and on 12 October 2009 they released their Debut Album Our First American Friends.
The band formed in 2005 while attending Kingston College when Joseph Prendergast suggested to David Catmur and Olev Saunders to make use of free studio time he came across by writing and recording a few songs. After a few weeks of recording the group decided to become a fully fledged band, and once they developed a full set of songs, they performed their first show at David’s house. They soon played small basement and club gigs and developed a small following which has grown rapidly.
The band performed a live set at The Luminaire, Kilburn, London in September 2008 which was recorded and broadcast online by BeatCastTV. This was the first band to feature on the then new independently run music web channel and marked it’s unofficial “launch”.
After releasing an EP and three singles and garnering a great following through the release of the video for “Feed Me A Box Of Words” and relentless touring with bands such as This Town Needs Guns and Tellison they signed a record deal with Hassle records and on 12 October 2009 they released their debut album Our First American Friends which was met with Critical Praise from Rock Sound, ThisisfakeDIY.com and BBC, and was supported by the single “Propeller” which was released with a video on 28 September 2009.
