It consists of Stephani Heuczuk (bass, vocals), Vinícius Lourenço (guitars, vocals), Cassiano Kruchelski (guitars, vocals), and Wendeu Silverio (drums). Their music blends shoegaze, post-rock, and alternative rock, incorporating ambient textures, ethereal vocals, and distorted guitar work.

In 2025, the band released their second album Natural, which expanded their sonic palette and was praised by critics from outlets such as Monkeybuzz, Folha de S.Paulo, and Stereogum. They have performed at major events including South by Southwest (SXSW), Primavera Sound São Paulo, and Coolritiba Festival, and have toured internationally in Argentina and the United States.
