Hartnoll and Young first met when they attended the infamous Wilderness Secondary Modern School in Sevenoaks, Kent. After leaving school in the mid-1980s, they independently became part of a local band scene - and video arcade basement community – that only ever spawned one four-track recording. The track never saw the light of day but many years later, just as the Covid-19 enforced lockdown kicked in, serendipity ensued when the pair got back in touch and found solace in a musical and lyrical collaboration that has naturally turned into an album – a Virus diary, if you will - that charts the lockdown.
