Steven Ansell 2014
Laura-Mary Carter 2014
History
The band consists of Laura-Mary Carter from London and Steven Ansell from Sussex. They were formed in 2005 after their former bands Lady Muck and Cat On Form broke up respectively. After over 300 live performances, they were signed to major label V2 in April 2007. During the year, gigs at festivals such as Reading and T in the Park followed. These and numerous other appearances, such as participation in the NME New Music Tour, helped raise the band's profile.
The band's first album Box of Secrets was released on April 14, 2008 by major label Universal.
On March 3, 2014, their fourth album Blood Red Shoes was released, which the band recorded in Berlin in 2013.
Style
The band's style can already be described as alternative rock from the release of A.D.H.D. onwards. The band rejects a classification into the subgenre indie rock because of their contract with a major label.
