An alt-rock band from Welwyn Garden City. They first came to the attention of the wider world when they were picked to play at Glastonbury. Hype has been surrounding them in the wake of that performance, and judging by the relentless urgent energy and polished songwriting they are able to conjure up, it seems justified.

Despite the obviously differing surnames, Billy and Josh are half brothers. It is believed he changed it to avoid the similar name to Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins.

Billy and Josh Grew up with many britpop, punk rock alt-rock heroes, The Ramones, The Beatles, Oasis. Josh's parents gave him a drum kit, and after hearing oasis on top of the pops, Billy started praticing famous songs he heard on the radio on his dads acustic guitar. soon after this he met charlotte cooper, she learnt bass, and the rest they say, is history! Singer/guitarist Billy Lunn and bassist Mary. Charlotte Cooper revealed news of their engagement to the crowd at a gig at the Camden Barfly on July 18th 2005. « hide
