The group was put together in Bloomington, Indiana by John Strohm (musician)|John Strohm and Freda Love , who had previously played together in the group Blake Babies . After adding local musicians Jacob Smith and Vess Ruhtenberg to the lineup, they began recording some of the songs Strohm had written while a member of the Blake Babies.

After the departure of Ruhtenberg and Love, Patrick Spurgeon joined the group and an EP, Sleep , was released in 1992. The full-length Hideout followed in 1993, with Ed Ackerson filling in on second guitar for the departed Ruhtenberg.
