The band have received considerable attention due to these releases, including BBC Introducing, who chose them to play at the By The Sea Festival, which saw them perform alongside such acts as Wolf Alice, The Mystery Jets, and Super Furry Animals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The band comprises Beth Plumb, Daniel Elliott, Ben Marshall, Sam Teather, and Graham Nunn, and was originally started in 2014 as the recording project of Daniel.
