After writing a few songs, we received positive song writing commendation from Q award winner Pal Waaktaar Savoy of a-ha fame. He and his wife Lauren enjoyed our work and gave us some very positive comments and encouragement to continue our career in music.

“Very very nice, guys, beautiful lyrics. You're only 15. Follow your dream, you can do it, and its so worth it!”

Since then, we have been motivated and encouraged to continue our musical careers. We have had our music played at respectable shows at The Woodville Halls in Gravesend during the intervals in shows. We have live performance experience as Oliver and Ollie have both performed in pantomimes and shows in Gravesend.

As a band however, we have our first live show coming up in the next two month for a charity gig to raise money for our church. Over the next few weeks, we are also having our music played on BBC Radio Kent with Trevor Claringbold.

We are planning to play many shows over the next year in pubs and small venues across south east Kent. Due to most of our album being written, we plan to record the rest of the album professionally by the end of the year.
