Band history
The four high school friends Michael Trent, Kenneth Harris, Jacob Sinclair and Adam Blake formed a band in 2003, despite different musical origins. In order to escape the daily grind, they toured the entire south of the USA and after a while released their debut album Don't Dance Rattlesnake . Warner Music USA loved it so much that they immediately got a record deal.
Since December 2006 they have been touring Europe as the opening act for The Kooks, and they are also performing in the USA again in the meantime.
In October / November 2007 they had their own tour through Germany in small halls.
