The band formed in 2004 with Alex Scally being the only other member, although a drummer often plays live with them for a more complete sound. The genre of the band is considered dream pop because of the slow, atmospheric rhythms displayed in melody and sound.
Her distinctive vocals have been described as "sultry" and "elegant".[1]
