About the Band

It's August 2006 , Joe Martin, Jonny Palmer and Rich Hughes, were just three lads who wanted to bash around, and have a laugh on a drum kit which consisted of a Quality Street tin, a Wellington boot and a couple of old guitars!

Time passed, they started to write simple, but in a way very effective music and lyrics. They thought to themselves, "Why are there so many heavy rock bands around these days? Why can't people seem to be able to write about THEIR feelings, and not just imitating the on going array of heavy rock?".

The only real way to respond to this, was to carry on with what they loved doing: writing, playing, performing, pretty much in that order. Their first song written as a group, "WINDOW PANE", wasn't about a girl, it wasn't about how much they hated the world and wanted to dress in black, it was simply about life in general, how some people take it for granted, how others treasure it to this very day. "Window Pane" really did set the mark for them, and since then, they have written more and more.This has started them down what we all know will be a long path on one hell of a journey!!!!!
