The band first got together as Jennie Tropik Dream and recorded only a demo of two songs at the start of 1999.

The Electric Crayon Set is a psychedelic power pop band with a raw but folky edge. It's music leans heavily on the 60's psychedelic/mod/pop legacy of The Zombies, Small Faces and The Creation, not forgetting the twisted pop geniuses of the 70's, 80's and 90's of which XTC, Martin Newell and The Jam spring to mind in the first place. Electric Crayon Sets songs have catchy choruses while the songs themselves are sometimes mystic, idiosyncratic and often even weird.

The band's recording career took off with a single The Hardest Thing/Demons In Disquise in 2000. Year 2001 saw the release of the group's debut album One Man's Trash on Timo Pääkkö's own label SoundHawk Records.
CD: 'What a Rotter of a Day ' was Released 3 July 2007.
