History
Greer, Annette, Batti and Angela were in the same high school back in 1994 (Cheltenham Girls' High, North Sydney) when they decided to form the all-girls rock band. The release of their first full-length album, Too Fat for Tahiti gained them a respectable following, support places with major bands and frequent airplay on Triple J, Australia's nationwide alternative public radio station. Their songs "Naughty" and "H?j" were voted into the Triple J Hottest 100 at number 50 and 80 respectively of that year, the album was nominated for an ARIA (Best Independent Album) and the band nominated for 'Best New Live Act' at the Australian Music Awards.

The band toured Australia exhaustively before recording a new album "The Double Life" which was released early 2003. They released a free download only single "Rock Nugget" which received high rotation on Triple J. The album received 'feature album' on Triple J, however sales of "The Double Life" were somewhat disappointing compared to those of debut "Too Fat for Tahiti". The band went on to release singles "Coming Home" and "In Your Arms" and played the national Big Day Out tour in 2004 alongside heroes Metallica, Magic Dirt, The Darkness and others. Early 2004 also had the band supporting Pink at the Sydney and Newcastle entertainment centres. At this point guitarist Batti decided to depart the band and moved to Canada to pursue other interests.

Following the replacement of Batti with new guitarist Gregory Boulting, the band toured the east coast of Australia and recorded extensive demos of new material which have never been released. The band members have decided to go their own ways and pursue further interests, according to a recent post on their official MySpace page. Batti remains in London, Ontario (Canada) and Annette Harada has relocated to London, UK.

Ange is now in the Sydney band Boston Shaker. Greer is currently working as Editorial Co-Ordinator on Practical Parenting magazine.

Apart from Ange's new band, Upon Batti's departure Greer recruited and married a hottie with sexy hair (the aforementioned Gregory), Annette flew to London, and Batti met her hubby in Canadia. Y'see? Being in a relatively long-term Sydney band produces results!
