History

Rosa Walton and Jenny Hollingworth were both raised in Norwich, a city in East Anglia. They originally met in reception class when they were four,^[1] and began making music together at 13. They originally began creating music as a playtime activity, with their first songs being titled "The Angry Chicken" and "Get That Leg Off the Banister".^[2] Their band name is taken from a grammatical joke meant to emphasize the importance of comma placement. They became members of the local Norwich music scene, before they caught the attention of the musician Kiran Leonard, who passed their work onto their future manager.^[3] Their debut album, I, Gemini, is composed of songs that were mostly written when Rosa and Jenny were younger. These songs include singles "Deep Six Textbook", which is about playing hooky, and "Eat Shiitake Mushrooms", which was inspired by some graffiti the girls saw while walking around town in Norwich.^[4] The album was released by Transgressive Records on 17 June 2016, and received positive reviews in NME,^[5] The Guardian,^[6] and Q.
