Deliriously catchy, not quite dance, not quite pop, and totally infectious.The Panics formed in high school when Jae Laffer and Drew Whooton met on the first day of term. Laffer said, "You just look at someone and go alright you can be my friend - you've got the same haircut as me".

It's since been a slow and steady build for The Panics. Since forming in Perth, big things have been predicted for the band. After being spotted playing in a pub by Happy Mondays' Gaz Whelan and Pete Carroll, following The Mondays' performance at The Big Day Out in 2000, they were signed to their UK/Australian littleBIGMAN records label.
