History
Singer Scott Taylor and guitarist James Bird met at school. Bird was already an accomplished guitarist, having played on stage with boyhood hero Zakk Wylde[2]. The band was formed in 2013 with the others joining at that time, with Taylor forgoing plans to become an Olympic Games and bassist Matthew Ward pulling out of his degree. They released their debut eponymous EP in 2015 before embarking on various live shows, supporting acts such as Airbourne (band) and Gun (band) as well as appearing at festivals such as Winterstorm in Troon and on the Boardie Takeover Stage at Download Festival[3].
In 2019, they launched a Kickstarter campaign for their debut album. Planned to release in 2020, it was eventually released in March 2021, with the album "Against The Wall" reaching 19 in the official UK album charts[4]
