History

Prior to forming the band, Martin performed around Greater Manchester as a performance poet.[5] Some poems went on to form the basis of Cabbage songs, including Dinnerlady.[6] Broadbent was previously the drummer in Where's Strutter?[7][8] and Brahma-Loka whom Bill Ryder-Jones produced tracks for at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool.[9][10] Guitarist Eoghan Clifford was previously the drummer in Mossley band The Fayre, a one time member of Twisted Wheel with past Bassist Stephen Evans and also worked with local singer-songwriter Danny Mahon.[11][12][13] Drummer Asa Morley has previously played with Storytellers.[14][15] In 2019, bassist Stephen Evans departed the band and was replaced by Patrick Neville, who also performs with Mossley band 'Yellow Brain'.

The band released a collection of their early EPs, called Young, Dumb and Full of..., in January 2017.[16]

The band released their debut album Nihlistic Glamour Shots in April 2018 which charted at No. 21 in the UK Albums Chart.
