They create a unique blend of floating melodies, tasteful chords and smooth grooves. The band itself consist of Nikki Milla (Amsterdam-born front women) who met her fellow band mates; Tom Want (drums) and Tom Bonez (multi-instrumentalist) around 2019 in Liverpool, sharing the same passion the ABBA Gold album and Calvin Harris’ 2009 discography.

Unfortunately, due to well documented circumstances, the band have not been able to showcase the music they have been creating during the nationwide lockdown. This is all changed when they got to play live again late 2021, securing slots at Liverpool&#39;s SoundCity and Ilse Of Wight Festival alongside headline shows in Liverpool, Manchester and Chester.
