Over the years the band has grown to include a rotating cast of Denton and former Denton musicians. Hill left the band in 2007. In 2007 the group refined their live show, choosing to move away from their amplified presentation in favor of quiet chamber music style acoustic sets performed on the band's traveling rug. They now book themselves in alternative venues such as art galleries, museums and smaller non-bar facilities. The band has a short list of releases that include a 9-song EP, Dog released in 1998 on now-defunct Quality Park Records, as well as the LP No Silver/No Gold released in 2003 on Subpop Records.
