After releasing their debut EP, Lemona in 2004, the band released their debut studio album, Hearts and Unicorns (2005) through Kickball Records, a subsidiary of Interscope. Interscope dropped the band from their label after issuing their single, "This Isn't It", in 2006, and Calabrese subsequently left the project. Hardy continued to record material for the band, and their second album, Waking Up is Hard to Do, was self-released in 2013 through their own label, Full Psycho Records. In 2020, Hardy revealed she had written and recorded a third album with former Klaxons singer Jamie Reynolds in London. (en)

Leur deuxième album, Waking Up is Hard to Do, est publié en 2013. Le genre musical du groupe est décrit comme post-grunge, et comparé à des groupes tels que My Bloody Valentine, The Breeders ou PJ Harvey, bien que les membres du groupe ne soient pas toujours d’accord avec ces comparaisons. Selon Annie Hardy, ces comparaisons viendraient du press pack du groupe qui fait les mêmes comparaisons. (fr)

As letras das canções das banda normalmente possuem um toque de humor negro e nos concertos a vocalista Annie costuma fazer monólogos engraçados entre uma canção e outra. Durante apresentações em 2006, a banda fez um fez um cover de "Wicked Game" do cantor Chris Isaak. Annie Hardy começa a canção com uma introdução dizendo que escreveu a canção para Chris quando tinha oito anos e que ele a roubou, o que ela só soube mais tarde, ao ver "sua" canção na MTV. Em 2007, a canção foi trilha sonora para as propagandas do seriado de televisão Nip/Tuck. (pt)
