history
After forming in 2008, the band released their first EP Grassman's Cottage in 2010 . Numerous concerts in Austria followed, whereupon the band released their first music video for Pumping Iron in December 2011 with the World Strongest Man Martin Wildauer as a star guest.
In June 2012 the debut album Broken Dreams was released, including a music video for the title track. In the summer the band played on several international festival stages, for example at the Rock im Ring Festival in Ritten, South Tyrol, with Peter Pan Speedrock or The Subways . After a few unplugged appearances, the band released the EP Blackout later that year , which was recorded live with two acoustic guitars, a cajon and vocals. Over 200 tour dates across Europe with u. a. The Quireboys , Pretty Maids , The New Roses and Serenity followed.
In the summer of 2014, production of the second album Doubts & Fears , which was released in May 2015, started in the band's own studio . Festival appearances followed in summer 2015, including at the Donauinselfest and the Nova Rock Festival.
Before starting work on a new album, the band captured their live experience on record and unceremoniously released the EP Road Worn in February 2016.
