The band started out playing for fun in 2005 and have since gone on to support The Strokes, as well as touring nationally themselves.
The 'New Cassettes' played the 'BBC Introducing...' stage at Glastonbury Festival in 2007. They were one of the five Introducing acts selected to perform at the BBC Electric Proms, and performed at the 2006 Latitude, Wireless, and Summer Sundae festivals. In the weeks preceding their performance at the BBC Electric proms their stories were followed by a series of five documentaries, and they went on to play at the BBC introducing UK tour.
