The band formed in Colorado Springs in 1968. In 1969 and 1970 they released two albums, which are called the same and are very similar in content. The debut album charted for two weeks in late 1969, peaking at number 195. Both records were recorded at the studio in Clovis, New Mexico, where Buddy Holly recorded. After the breakup, Robert Yeazel and Larry Ferris joined the Sugarloaf group.
