In January 2023, they released their second EP, Creatures.[3] In speaking about the release, the band said "This EP was done in blocks of days in the studio spread out months apart, usually working on 1-2 songs at a time. This allowed us to focus strongly on each song as its own piece of work."[4]
In August 2023, they released their third EP, Tales of the Yeti.[5][6] Upon release, guitarist and vocalist Nehemiah Reuben said "For Tales of the Yeti, we wanted to keep building musically from what we had previously done before, experimenting with more styles and not being strict on what themes came out of the jamming process. This EP covers a few genres and shows what we're capable of when playing music. We enjoy all types of different styles and love jamming whatever feels good, this EP is a good representation of that."[6]
In April 2024, the band signed with Lemon Tree Music.[7]
The band released their debut album The Bliss in November 2024.[8] it debuted at number 25 on the ARIA Albums Chart.[9]
