Jonathan and Goran met at high school and wrote their first songs in music class which didn't leave much time for study. They both got a bad grade. Bonded by their love of a crafty tune, it wasn't long before they started making hip hop beats in a dark and spidery basement at Jonathan’s house. Some years later they decided to buy electric guitars and start a rock band. Mark joined on drums after finding a demo on the internet. Jonathan and Goran knew Paul from school and they also knew he was a rad bass player. One night while Paul was drunk, they asked him to join. They swear he slurred a yes.
In mid 2006 they recorded their first demo which made number 12 on 3D Radio's 20+1 weekly charts. In late 2006 they played their first gig. In early 2007 they recorded some more songs, some of which you can hear right here.

We Grow Up launches our 2nd album Night Kitchen on the 22nd of February at the Jade Monkey. Doors open at 9pm. 6 bucks entry. Early reviews of the album from Rip It Up and DB Magazine have compared the album’s sound to Crowded House and The Beatles. We will be supported by Jon Marco’s new band The Honey Pies.
Yes, this is a bulk message, but we still think you’re special… all of you
It's our final show for the year, and possibly for a while as we head back into the studio in 2008! Should prove to be a wonderful night in the Wheaty beer garden, and a great way to welcome in the holiday break. Hope to see you all there!

Thank you for supporting Fair Play For Live Entertainment Venues.
We are now progressing toward the second stage of our campaign, which is to build on the political support we’re currently receiving. If you’d like to help us we could really use true stories of the effect of pokies on South Australia’s live entertainment industry, displacement of live music etc. Perhaps you have a story or stories about the effect of pokies on you as an entertainer/band. Or maybe a story from the perspective of an audience member. Or of course as a live entertainment venue owner. Politicians like evidence and your stories will provide anecdotal evidence. Please send all stories to Monty at venuelobby@mail.com
hey i love the cover design, nice one jonno! Its what they call "Arty farty" in the buisness, looking forward as opposed to looking backwards to your launch and Pauls B'day what be a great combo! see ya cats there!
i've been told be there or be square... seemingly its wise to be there. i do not want to appear square. that is not attractive, you see. all angular and such.
Yes indeed, a friend and myself shall be there. I shall be the one having a love affair with tequila and enjoying the show. Best of luck, but imo you sound great so you don't really need it.
