Formed in Oxford in 1992 by childhood friends Andy Yorke, Nigel Powell and Jason Moulster- released their debut album Almost Here( Virgin) in 1998, reaching 21 in the UK charts and spawning three top 40singles in Higher Than Reason, Solved and Settle Down and a world tour which saw success in France and Japanand the US (opening for Tori Amos).
Reformed in 2023, ostensibly for shows to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Almost Here (one in Oxford sold outin 3 minutes), but quickly rediscovering their writing chemistry- kicked off 2025 with a UK tour supporting Soul Asylum ahead of the release of their first music in 25years.
Citizens Band EP released 21st March 2025 (Noosphere Records through Believe Distribution).

“the natural continuation of a conversation interrupted in 2000” - B-Side Guys
“an outstanding vocal performance” - Loudness Blog |
”Andy’s voice is the same pure, almost hymnal instrument as it ever was – a yearning, plaintive voice, cut from glass or marble” - Dale Kattack @ Nightshift Magazine
