Joshua Keogh, Tom Sperring, and Will Jones were originally friends from Buckinghamshire at Dr Challoner's Grammar School, where they played in an alternative rock band. With Felix Archer from the same area and Henry Wyeth from Kent, they met while studying at the University of Nottingham. They all studied for degrees in humanities and law but abandoned their studies in the second year to focus on the band. Keogh initially performed under his own name and started to get "a bit of momentum [so] we sat down and jammed out one day and there was something about it. It was so much better than what I was doing solo, so we started a band".
