Signs that Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule were destined to come together as a duo first started over two decades ago. At around 10 years old they both moved from London to Brighton where they attended different secondary schools but mixed with the same circles, playing on rival football teams.

Fate brought both of them from Brighton to the world-famous BRIT school, which nurtured creative talents such as Adele, Amy Winehouse and Tom Holland. Jordan studied Media, wanting to be a writer/director and Harley focussed on Theatre, with visions of becoming an actor. They could have easily ended up working on opposite sides of the camera to one another, but music would be where they would find huge success together.
