Launching in 2007, the duo were quick to make the BBC Radio 1 playlist[2] and, after touring in Brazil in 2008,[3] played Glastonbury Festival in 2009.[4] Also in 2009, Hedluv the Musical was awarded "Film of the Festival" at the Cornwall Film Festival.[5]
In 2012, they performed at The Gilded Balloon for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Advertised as comedy, their show received mixed reviews, with The Guardian saying that 'their combination of demented commitment and catatonic defeatism [made] for an oddly mesmerising hour'.[6]
