This British quartet of friends used to jam at their local pub to music influenced by groups like The Flaming Lips and Grandaddy . A few years later they were signed and touring, slowly picking up fans in the proccess.
Their Indie-pop style has made their albums, including their newest, Tourist, smash hits on the UK charts. However, they really weren't known in the US until they went on tour opening for Snow Patrol in 2005. They are still under the radar in the US, but their popularity is sure to grow as it did in the UK (with that who enjoy the amazing music this group has to offer).
