The band has quickly built a reputation for infectious melodies and an authentic heavy roots sound laced with a refreshingly eclectic originality.
Dandelion, the most recent addition to the band, is already an established reggae artist in his own right. His solo projects have seen him sing
on several successful Dubstep releases, most notably CCTV on the Hyperdub label which was supported by the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs and
Giles Peterson on Radio 1.
They have shared the stage with acts such as Toots and the Maytals, Dreadzone, Babyhead, Rodney P, DJ Derek and Blackslate. Their material
and enthusiasm has taken them this far in such a short time. « hide |
