The band's original material was written by Heaton and Rotheray.

After recording their first album, Welcome to the Beautiful South (1989), as a five-piece, they were joined by a succession of women vocalists; Briana Corrigan from 1990 to 1992, Jacqui Abbott from 1993 to 2000, and Alison Wheeler from 2003 to the band's split in 2007.
