Band History

Formed in late 2005 as a 3 peice with Nick, Martyn and Andy Robinson (on drums), they later decided that they needed a singer and a bassist, which meant Martyn would play guitar alongside Nick.

After many practices they got their first gig at The Bowl with bands Seven Days At Knife Point (the now defunct Astral Casket), Mask Of Insanity and The Secret Steves.

At the end of the summer in 2006 Andy left the band to move to the UK to do a course at Drumtech and the band welcomed Matt Claxton into the fold as new drummer.

At the start of 2007 the band decided to call it a day due to "musical differences" and because things reached a natural conclusion.

However summer 2007 saw the band back together, with original drummer Andy, gigging and recording an EP of their original songs, 'Kiss Me Electric', which was released just before Christmas 2007.

In early 2008 the band started the new year in style with a winning performance at the Exclaim! King of the Stage event at the L'Ancresse Lodge.

The band split in August 2008 following a successful show at Guernsey's Performing Arts Centre with several other local acts due to several members of the band leaving the island that September.

Their Favourite Gig

Martyn says: "Mudstock Bike Show 2006 was probably our favourite gig as their was a great crowd response with some of the crowd singing the words to our original 'Moth In The Rain' which has become quite popular in the local scene.

"We also played a charity gig at the grammar school, the stage was huge so that was fun to run about on."
