Consisting of multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and producer Stu Folsom, accompanied by Matt Schrum and Randy Moore (guitars), Nick Brundy (bass) and Preston Harper (drums), the band drawing its influences from country, punk and spaghetti westerns released a namesake debut single in 2019 featuring the tracks "Curse of a Transient" and "Zevon Forever", before offering the album Pagan Rhythms in 2020.
