Early in 2006 a group of students decided to have a couple of jamming sessions. After several successful yet casual jams, the musicians grew closer and it was not long before they decided to stick together as a formal band. Eventually four of the members moved on to pursue their own styles of funk and rock forming a tightly-knit quartet that better suited their tastes. The members, Luke Grech (guitars), Ivan Giordano (bass), Robert Spiteri (drums) and Keith Zammit (vocals); had several successful gigs and managed to attract a decent following. Some months later, Joseph Axiak was invited to join the band on keyboards.

Having collaborated together in several bands and projects during their school years, the founding members gravitated towards each other, eventually forming a formal band in 2009.
