Formed in 1986-88, Bellingham WA
Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow starting writing songs together in 1986. In late 1987 and early 1988 they recorded twelve tracks at Auer's home studio, planning to use them to find members to fill out their band. Those tracks actually became their first, although self-released, project...put out on cassette originally, until the local Indie label Pop Llama picked up the project.
Drummer Mike Musberger and Bassist Rick Roberts joined
them
shortly after and they started playing shows around the Pacific
Northwest and lived together for a short time in Seattle's University
District.
