[1] The trio's roots originated in mid-2011 when the bandmembers met at Goo a club night based in Bognor Regis.
There, Stuart Hopkins was a DJ where he spun songs by Wire, New Order, and Le Tigre along with mainstream pop and rap.
The three bandmembers bonded over their mutual tastes of music, specifically musicians such as McLusky, Pavement, Television and Kraftwerk.
[1] They sent the demos to producer and former Test Icicles member Rory Atwell, and recorded their first set of songs with him in November 2011.
[1] Early in 2013, they recorded with Hookworms' Matthew Johnson at his Leeds studio and released their EP, Ladders that June.
