They moved to Copenhagan six years ago, at the age of 20, to further their career and have spent a lot of their time in the past few year in the U.S. recording and playing as many gigs as possible.

The band will be touring the US (dates to be announced) and doing festivals in Europe for the rest of the year including the P3 Awards show in Denmark at the end of this month. On past tours, the band has shared the stage with the likes of Jet, Hot Hot Heat, Electric Six and The Pretenders as well as their own headlining tour.
