Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Co-founders David (bass) and Fabien (guitar, vocals, arrangements) recorded a 16 song demo in France in 2002 and founded their own label PopEye Records over there around the same time. But the inappropriate geographical situation for their Anglo-Saxon inspired music made them soon pack their things up in a car and move to London. This was back in December 2002. 6 months later, a band was formed with lead guitarist and backing vocalist Philip Lloyd and drummer Gerwin Spalink. 10 tracks are ready to be played live as soon as September 2003.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
