were formed in 1999. Seven years saw the band unsuccessfully try to break the Liverpool gig 'scene', some hit and miss touring around the country, a regrettable involvement with a dodgy label and a succession of bass players come and go. In 2006, after witnessing the far greater interest shown in live music in the area, Andy relocated to Chester with a renewed hope to make a name for the band. Playing acoustic slots at Open Mic. night each Tuesday over the course of a few months gained more interest in the songs than years of hard slog in the so-called 'Capital Of Culture'. Here, Andy met Monkey Dave. Following the unfortunate departure of then bassist Gary Ellis, Dave agreed to join Sheldon. May 7th 2009 saw the release of Sheldon's debut album 'Intravaganza'.

Lee 'Deathwish' Roberts stepped up to play drums and after one hasty practice played his first gig with the band on 3rd January 2010.
