History
[edit]First formed in 2006,[2] the band has had a variety of lineups. Its constant members have been singer/songwriter and guitarist Aaron Mangle, and drummer Leigh Dotey, who are not cousins.[1][3] They released their debut album, Out on Town, independently in 2009, and toured around Canada in support of the album in 2010,[4] including at Pop Montreal.[5] They signed to Saved by Vinyl for their 2012 album The Palm at the End of the Mind.[2] In 2012 the band toured extensively across Canada and the United States,[2][6] sometimes with Mangle and Dotey playing as a duo,[7] and often as a group of three or four musicians.[8]
Their third full-length album, The Halls of Wickwire, was released May 13, 2014 on Hand Drawn Dracula.[9][10] The album was produced by Graham Walsh of Holy Fuck,[2] and was a longlisted nominee for the 2014 Polaris Music Prize.[11]
