Ed Chivers Formed In 2003 When Johanna Bramli Keys & Vocals And Ben Adamo Bass Guitar Both From Belgium Recruited Matt Josling Keys & Loops Largo Started As What Was Then A Downtempo/electronica Trio. Two Years Later And After Reevaluating Their Sound And Direction Matt Left The Band And Was Replaced By James Wilkinson Ex Anal Beards!

In The Mean Time Ben Burns A Music Procucer Having Worked With Such Household Names As Cagedbaby Alice Russel And Phil Hartnoll First Became Producer Of The Band Before Officially Joining It Two Years Later Adding Valuable Experience As Well As An Arsenal Of Analogue Synths Into The Frame Completing The Largo Jigsaw.
