The band was originally formed in 1980 as The Filberts (after local football team, Leicester City’s former Filbert Street ground), although they would also occasionally appear as The Psychedelic Filberts.
Their main influences come from the West Coast sound of 1960s bands such as Moby Grape, Buffalo Springfield and Love.
The main creative force in the band is Butler, who writes nearly all the band’s material. Butler and Moth (who had also drummed for Leicester bands Legay and then Gypsy) had previously played together in a short-lived band called The Flicks.
