The band was founded in June 2004, as a result of searching the point where jazz, funk, ethno and electronic music meet. The group performed in many international festivals, such as: «Jazz Bez» (2004, 2005, 2006, 2008), «Fluhery Lwowa»/ «Wiatrowskazy Lwowa»/ «Weathercocks of Lvov» (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009), «MetroJazz» (2005), «Jednist»/ «Jedność»/ «Unity» (2007), «Starzy i Młodzi, czyli jazz w Krakowie»/ «The elder and the youth, that is jazz in Krakow» (2007), «Art-machine» as a part of the project «Wilno – Europejska Stolica Kultury 2009»/ «Vilnus – The European Art Capital 2009», «Kontury Doswidu»/ «Kontury Doświadczenia»/ «The Outlines of Experience» (2007) – Ukrainian-Lithuanian performance, «Jazz Fest» (Sumy 2008), «XIX Festiwal Kultury Ukraińskiej»/ «The 9th Ukrainian Culture Festival» (Sopot, Poland 2008).
The band‘s members at some point participated in workshops being a part of Ministry Of Culture and National Heritage‘s scholarship «Gaude Polonia» thought by the legends of Polish jazz: Andrzej Jagodziński (piano), Czesław Bartkowski (drums), Janusz Szrom (jazz vocal).
