History
The band (originally called Grass Party) was formed by Adams and Ison in late 2024, after a few songs were written with no natural home in either of their solo projects. Joined by Nikol Petkova and Ollie Newton, they continued to write songs together - soon their debut single ‘ No Golf, No Motorcycling’ was released. They released two more singles, both featuring sunvale, before their debut album ‘Dead Stops and False Endings’ was released in January 2026.

By that point, Petkova had left the band, and in July of the same year it was announced that Newton had left, with Ison stepping back from live performances following a move to Glasgow. In the Midlands, Adams was joined by Riley Jones, Max Rowley and Will Curtis.
