Help She Can't Swim (2003 - 2008)
Help She Can't Swim have split up. The band played their first show on 22nd December 2003 in Bournemouth and their final show was in Lille, France, on the 12th of October 2007. Between these dates the released 2 albums, 3 eps and 4 singles, played lots of gigs and tried to enjoy it all as much as they could.
Thank you to everyone who showed us love.
Tom now makes music as LONELY GHOSTS and is playing shows and releasing records. Leesey also plays in the Lonely Ghosts live band.
