History
The band formed in 1999, and released their debut single, Winterlight, in January 2000. The limited edition release was awarded Single of the Week in a number of music publications, gained airplay on Radio 1, sold out within a fortnight and made the UK Top 100. A number of other singles followed, and the band went on to support Pulp and The Delgados and played at Scott Walker's Meltdown with Elliott Smith.
By April 2001 they had recorded and released their debut album, Lido. After a slot on Later with Jools Holland and the release of a fourth single, Let Go, the band started work on their second album.
Cedars was the second album, released in February 2003. The third, Amber, was released in January 2006.
They are currently on tour with The Crimea
