The band released its debut album “Wa Caya Lu” out of seemingly nowhere in March 2018; and has released two additional singles, Haruan Cina and Si Kiwi since then.As younger men in Kuala Lumpur, Alang, and guitarist Aki, established themselves playing with many other notable Malaysian bands, in particular Man Under Zero Effort. Bassist Azlan comes from a background of band and tour management and drummer James ‘Sungai’ Rivers comes all the way from the music scene ‘down-under’ in New Zealand.The band often tours and performs outside of Kuala Lumpur and have been as far as Kuching and Kota Kinabalu in their 2019 Borneo Tour with fellow local outfit Lust. Their show credits are extensive; covering: HOV2019 (House Of Vans), Sarangfest 2019, opening sets for international bands Ceremony, Generacion Suicida and White Shoes & the Couples Company. They have played extensively throughout Malaysia and have plans to tour South East Asia in 2020.From pandemic to endemic, the band has been hitting the big stage of local festivals such as City ROARS!, Art of Speed and the forthcoming Sun Bear Festival, this would be their most intimate show in years! Supporting guests are Awang Samrow and Hawa.
