Their debut single, ‘Favourite Thing About Jane’, was released in May. Sunday Times featured it as their ‘hottest download’, XFM called it a “Britpop anthem” and an acoustic session aired on the station on 5th June. They will be performing a live session on Radio 2 on 29th June.

The indie-rockers’ US tour hit 15 major cities from San Francisco to New York. They created quite a spectacle travelling in a specially converted London red double-decker bus (see photo below). They survived extreme desert temperatures, tyre blow-outs, a smashed top deck window by an unfriendly lamp post, tropical storms, gallons of beer (the tour was sponsored by Bass) and some of the country’s less salubrious motels. They appeared on many TV stations (including ME TV, ABC7, Music Plus TV, Fox News) and radio stations on route. San Francisco Chronicle named them “the best kept secret at SXSW” and Music Week’s Editor “undeniably talented, with more than..” after seeing their Musexpo show at The Roxy in Hollywood.
