The band feature Heather Ditch (vocals/flute/zither), James Green (guitar/synths/backing vocals), Guy Whitaker (drums), Neal Heppleston (bass guitar & double bass) and James Street (organs/synths)
Their sound has touched on folk music, modern classical and drone/noise at times, but for the last few years they have been working on a more psychedelic pop sound. For the last two albums they have worked with producer Dean Honer (I Monster, Eccentronic Research Council, Moonlandingz, International Teacher Of Pop, All Seeing I).
