Constant gigging throughout the summer saw the band’s fan base grow and during the summer of 2007 the band’s demo’s started to pick up radio airplay in the United States via a St. Louis -based Internet Radio Station called IChannel. On 22 August 2007, the band travelled once again down to London for some more gigs and while in London the band commissioned their first professional press shots. These photographs were taken by professional photographer Peter Mallet and are still widely used by the press today even though they show the old band line-up. They were taken at Vauxhall Cross and the train station at the Elephant and Castle . That same night the band played at Death Disco in London. In the crowd was Tim Jonze , who came along to the gig. He was so impressed by the band’s performance that he offered to release their next record despite never having released one before. The band also offered to help in this venture and within a few days Sane Man Recordings was born; the aim was to release 1000 copies of ” Daddy’s Gone ” on 7″ vinyl by November 2007.
