Formed in 1995 by singer Ruth-Ann Boyle, keyboardist Tim Kellett and beat-master Robin Taylor-Firth. Kellett was a member of The Durutti Column where he came across Ruth's voice which he then sampled. He loved it so much he asked Durutti Column "who is the vocalist I'm making tape loops of?"

Their peak hit "You're Not Alone" charted at Number 1 in the UK official charts on May 17th 1997 for a total of 2 weeks, despite the original release on September 7th 1996 only reaching number 42 in the UK charts.
