Help She Can't Swim formed after having a picnic in vocalist Leesey's garden, consisting of cheese rolls, wine and Belle and Sebastian. Tom and Tom then went inside to play guitars while Leesey and Tim sat in the garden smoking and giggling. Eventually they started having proper practises and got Lewis in on drums because he looked better and played better than the drum beats on Leesey's keyboard.

"We want to make noise and dance. We are bored of where we live and the rubbish music that everyone around us seems to enjoy.

We are more sensible than you."
