Early Years and A Soundtrack For You (2008-2009)

The band was created originally as a side project between friends Matt Carter and Chris Jackson.

This, and their young age of just 15, lead to them being featured on Tom Robinson's BBC 6 show in June 2009, and gave an increase in their online fanbase^[2].
