Blamire and Davies met at school in Sussex during the mid-late 1990s. They began singing together in their school choir. They spent a year in New Orleans in 2002, where they absorbed American blues music. Returning to England, they discovered British folk at the Sidmouth Folk Week Festival while working as car park attendants. They later stayed a year living in Vancouver, Canada, before returning to London to start performing. In 2007 they supported Bryan Ferry on a tour of the UK and later toured with The Handsome Family in the Spring of 2009. They began self-releasing singles and their first EP was released in 2009
In December 2009 Jack White's Third Man Label released their 7" single "Gastown/ Riversong". The track was produced by Jack White and featured him on guitar and drums.
