Led by Martin Coogan, brother of television regular Steve Coogan, the band began to pick up attention around 1990, with tracks such as "Lay Me Down" and "And Then She Smiles" on the Imaginary label. It was "Can You Dig It?", however, which gained them wider attention. Originally a B-side to "Lay Me Down", the band's new record label, Siren, re-issued it with additional guitar work, and "Can You Dig It?" breached the Top Twenty in the UK singles chart.
The Mock Turtles, however, were unable to follow up the early success and were dropped by their label, remaining in limbo until; mobile phone network Vodafone used "Can You Dig It?" for an advertising campaign in 2003. This saw the band make a comeback. No less than eight new tracks were included on a new Greatest Hits album, together with older songs from their early 1990s peak.
The band have recently been quiet, but a return is not out of the question. Some of their songs have a slightly psychedelic edge, with intricate guitar riffs and keyboards.

Show me your ballet horses dancing for the dawn
Show me the shadow dreams that shade embrace your diamond lawn
Oh Mary, how does your garden grow?
Bring on your pretty maids in shades of china blue
Show me the crystal bells that catch the forming morning dew
Oh Mary, how does your garden grow?
I want you to walk with me under the gazing moon
Just like a fairy tale
Where I could be king, you could be queen
We could watch your garden sleeping, oh!
How does your garden grow?
Oh Mary, how does your garden grow?
With crystal bells, and cockle shells
And pretty maids in a row
ArancioneCovers
more than a feeling
