We say:

Dreamy alternative three-piece band composed of duel vocalists and guitarists Lily & Gussie, along with with Abe on drums. Melds elements of stoner rock with surf music and dreamy pop. Dreamsurf?

Beginning in 2014, they recorded an EP ‘O’, followed by a single, and played shows in both Wellington & around the country. They spent the last part of 2015 on overseas trips, but before then had recorded live the basic tracks for a debut album ‘Undergrowth’ at Blue Barn Studio in Newtown, the new home of ex-Munki engineer James Goldsmith.
