Background
[edit]Originating in 2004, in Mission, British Columbia, first under the name "Faber", the band's line-up consisted of lead vocalist Dave Faber, guitarist David Hinsley, bassist Jeremy Liddle and drummer Ray Bull.[1] In 2005, the group competed in Fox Seeds, the band competition of Vancouver radio station CFOX-FM, where they submitted the song "Sex and Love" on the day of the deadline, ultimately winning the contest.[2] A demo tape was later released, which caught the attention of Nickelback's producer Joey Moi and songwriter Brian Howes.[1]
Their self-titled EP was produced by Joey Moi and Brian Howes, recorded at Mountain View Studios in Abbotsford, British Columbia.[3]
