De har spillet sammen i forskellige projekter siden starten af nullerne og bandet er dannet på et fundament af venskab, skabertrang og kreativitet. Udover at have spillet sammen i hip hop kollektivet ”Gypsies” og indie pop/rock bandet ”Are We brothers?”, har medlemmerne været involveret i en masse forskellige projekter på den danske musikscene. Shaka Loveless gik solo i de tidlige 2010’ere med stor kommerciel succes, hvor han bl.a. vandt en DMA i 2013 for årets mandlige artist. Lasse Boman har haft stor succes som sangskriver med kæmpehits i bagagen med bl.a. Uro og Drew Sycamore. Birk Nevel arbejder som producer og er en af de mest efterspurgte trommeslagere på den danske live- og studiescene. Han er en del af ”Familien”, som er kendt for deres samarbejde med Benjamin Hav, som har givet ham en ”Gaffa Award” i 2023 for bedste liveact. I begyndelsen af 2024 mødtes de tre venner i et øvelokale og begyndte at jamme. Efter et par sessions begyndte et musikalsk koncept at udvikle sig – centreret omkring groove, mentale billeder og længsel. I starten var ideen at gøre projektet helt instrumentalt, men uden at sætte begrænsninger for den kreative strøm, blev ord og melodier til sidst introduceret. Vokal og tekst er dog ikke essensen af sangene, men hjælper blot med at danne billeder og stemninger. "Vores sange er lyden af vores længsler fra et langt liv i musikbranchen – ting, vi måtte få ud, for at holde kærligheden til musikken i live.” - Lakes & Fires Fotograf: Zarko Ivetic.

In early 2024, the three friends met in a rehearsal room and started jamming. After a few sessions, a musical concept began to develop – centred around groove, mental images and longing. Initially, the idea was to make the project entirely instrumental, but without limiting the creative flow, words and melodies were eventually introduced. However, vocals and lyrics are not the essence of the songs, but merely help to create images and moods.
