Their sound, which has changed considerably throughout the past decade, is currently a fusion of R&B, dance and contemporary (and, in a way, also 80s sounding) pop. It is - for Slovenian standards - produced in a remarkably contemporary fashion and has brought the band a number of gigs outside Slovenian borders. They were thus invited to play at the Exit Festival and were hosted by number of Slovenian festivals. They were also the official support act for the Duran Duran gig in Ljubljana. |
