The band was formed in 2002 by guitarists Emile and Sid, bassist Jow Feldtmann and drummer Nelius de Lange. Shortly thereafter Emile brought in his former Not My Dog bandmate Hanu de Jong as the band's vocalist, completing the line up.

In early 2003 the band released their debut album Self Conscious to wide critical acclaim and a South African Music Awards (SAMA) nomination. [1] In June that same year founding guitarist Sid left the band and was replaced by Deon Kruger. [2]

In 2004 the band released their follow-up album Travellers. The album earned the band their second SAMA nomination and the single "Lonely-Lonely" helped launch the band to greater recognition and popularity. [3]

In 2005 the band remastered and re-released both their albums, with added tracks of old and new unreleased material. [4]

After a slew of international stints the band underwent a brief hiatus in 2007 but became active again in 2008. [5]

In 2010 they released their 3rd full-length album You Don't Get to Quit, earning them their third SAMA nomination. In 2012 the band released Understated, featuring acoustic versions of previously released material. [6]
