After several months gigging around their hometown, the band began playing clubs and pubs around Ireland, playing sets mixing original material with rhythm and blues covers. Their set of fast-paced, gritty, garage rock "speed blues", which mixed the powerful approach of Dr. Feelgood with the intense rave-up format of The Yardbirds, quickly became well received by crowds across Ireland and their reputation as a live act grew.
After their North America tour they persued film acting and ultimately on 14 November 2018 the band announced they were splitting up.

You know she's got a weapon and a method to make you cry,
Because she float like a bee but she sting like a butterfly.

She doesn't like the dark but she likes it when I turn out the light,

Yeah my girl's So Fine,
Yeah my baby's So Fine,
Because she float like a bee but she sting like a butterfly.
