The band was originally put together by (Shrapnel Records' owner) Mike Varney for a D.T. Chastain solo album.
The band never officially broke up, but it went on hold several times during the years. It first stopped activity in 1992 when singer Leather Leone left, but was reactivated in 1994 when David Chastain decided he would do an album with a male vocalist. He tried several singers and did a tour with himself on lead vocals before Kate French finally joined.
In 1998, band became inactive again, then restarted activity in 2001 and stopped again in 2005. In 2013, original members Leather Leone and Mike Skimmerhorn rejoined the group.
