Edit history

Writer/Producer/Vocalist Matt Ruys and multi-instrumentalist Jared Wrennall (ex-Steriogram) got to know each other through mutual friends in the music scene. And, being in a similar head space musically, eventually decided to give co-writing a go. Both agree something "very natural and unforced happened" when they sat down for their first writing session. So natural in fact that at the end of a weekend in a beach house with a bottle of Jameson and a guitar, they had nine new songs in need of a home. It was clear soon after that they already had one. Jared & Matt became GO STOP GO, and one year later after a stint in Neil Finn's Roundhead Studios, the band's debut album is ready to go.
