Their debut album, Where Joys Abound was released later that year. Following the joining of long-time collaborator Keith Buckmanon bass, vocalist Marguerita Alexandrou and guitarist Denis Warren, the lineup stabilised, and joined Bad Elephant Music in 2016 for the release of their highly acclaimed second album, Given the Impossible.
