A North kent based band made up of three ex-members of Rebel played at most of the Kent venues in the early Eighties then started to record all original material at Graham Q Jones' Oakwood Studios in Herne Bay.

The recordings were sent to various management companies and the band were offered a contract with Fischer Z Management in London and European tour as support to FischerZ plus a singles deal with A&M records.

Everything was in the right place including an albums worth of material ready to go but the band unfortuanately split up on the eve of signing all contracts.
