The couple met online early in 2011 through the Guardian Soulmates dating website and soon realised they shared a deep love and passion for music. Simon started the band in Brighton in 2015 and after several personnel changes persuaded Susie to dig out her flute from the loft and to buy a new keyboard !

Since that time the duo have played venues and

festivals in UK, France & Spain drawing inspiration from The Beatles' Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album, psychedelic bands such as Cream, the blues of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and Willie Dixon, early Soul and R&B hits and the reggae of Bob Marley & the Wailers.
