When they were growing up, Jack and Mike Shaw, who are twin brothers, often listened to music together, including The Beatles, The Stone Roses, Mazzy Star, and Elliott Smith.
[1] The Shaw brothers started playing music with each other when they were 9,[2] and formed the Head with their friend Morell in 2007, when all three members were 14 years old and went to the same high school (specifically, Holy Spirit Preparatory School).
