[2] Formed in 2015, the Snuts gained a strong following playing what they describe as "anthemic indie rock" and in November 2018 the band signed with big label Parlophone.

[3][4] In March 2020, the band released their Mixtape EP, showcasing some different influences and styles, and it was met with success, peaking in the Top 20 of the UK Albums Chart.

Reviewing for the NME, Nick Reilly wrote that the band "deliver a record of impressive contrasts" and that "come festival season, should we have one, you sense that this genre-hopping gamble will pay off; it’s more ample proof that guitar music doesn’t just have a place in 2021, but that listeners are in tune enough to embrace and support its variety.
