After their musical project In Reverse ended, Cory Pritchard and Jim Anderson decided that a new band and a new approach was needed.

[1] Taking their love for 1950s and 1960s music, they formed a band that not only covered the likes of Buddy Holly and Elvis Presley but also recorded original material.

These demos garnered support in Australia and eventually connected the group with their Australian manager, Sara Smithson.

Working with Smithson, the band was able to establish a loyal fan base overseas and subsequently plan and complete a tour in mid-2008.

[citation needed] Featured on the tour was a show played at Warner Bay School, the winners of the Revolution on Film competition, where students created videos to songs on the Sunflower EP.
