Bird Nest Roys

[1] The group attracted an odd ensemble of characters with their own coded language, and a combination of Westie and early Grey Lynn culture.

They frequently practiced on an old 50-acre (20 ha) farm called Nosnaws (named in honour of the local Swanson area), in the foothills of the Waitakere Ranges.

Being part of the Flying Nun record label[1] enabled the band to play numerous gigs up and down New Zealand.

The band reformed for a one-off gig at the old Rising Sun Hotel in Karangahape Road in early January 2008.

A compilation album of all their recorded work, Me Want Me Get Me Need Me Have Me Love, was released in August 2013.
