Three of us formed to basically to hang out, mates for years, we jammed, formed riffs and jams. Then Cormac joined in 2017 (also a mate for years) and the riffs and jams became songs.

Our music influences are varied. From Black Sabbath to Radiohead to Flaming Lips to Edvard Grieg and everything in between
5. What makes your project different?
It's probably Cormac, our singer. Lately, he's been using a camera on the microphone and projecting his face on a canvas behind the drummer, which we think is pretty cool. He also has been wearing an EyeBall for the first hand full of songs in our sets..it's really hot in there!

The biggest struggle so far is getting the family/life/work balance.

Our future is very bright, working on a full-length album, releasing that later in 2020, and we have some great gigs lined up locally.
