Both their debut album, Silverton Swamp Songs (2009), and the critically acclaimed second helping, The Long Drive (2011), were heavily influenced by Kobus and Andre’s blues roots.
In 2013 the band released their third (SAMA nominated) studio album, Beatipiller, which showcased their collective influences as a diverse four-piece rock act.
In the same year the band also won the MK Award for “Best Live Act” and emerged from being underground sub-culture champions to a group that is adored nationwide by a constantly expanding, and ever-loyal following from all walks of life.
