About //

we are a four-piece from bristol. Pete and Nick were in a band together in the 90s, Nick has drummed for the likes of Seal & Grace Jones. Pete was in Statik Sounds System and he and Nick play in current 2 piece New Brand. Roberta and Cat knew each other from the Scottish music scene. Cat played in a punk band Kiss Me Killer which Nick did sound for various times. After lockdown, Nick, Pete and Cat worked on recording demos of Cat's songs with Roberta joining as lead guitarist when they started to rehearse live. They went into the studio at Humm Studios in Bristol Summer 2026 and their debut EP is currently being mixed and mastered with a release early 2027.
