The band is from Twickenham, London, England and consists of Charlie (vocals, guitar), Doug (drums), Tom (fiddle), and Urby (bass), and after a handful of singles, have released their first album, Peaceful The World Lays Me Down in August 2008. Laura Marling and Emmy The Great were members of the band before going solo, although they both continue to perform with the band occasionally. They have been compared to The Magic Numbers, The Little Ones, The Postal Service, and Belle & Sebastian.
Their name is a marriage of the title of one of the band's favorite films, "The Squid and the Whale," and the name of the director (Noah Baumbach). They are avid fans of the film director Wes Anderson, who helped produce "The Squid and the Whale" alongside Noah Baumbach. Their e-mails, and many of their MySpace blog posts, are signed "Sic Transit Gloria".
The band performed on Jeremy Warmsley’s internet television show, Welcome to our TV show, and have made several appearances at festivals including Leeds, Latitude, SXSW, Glastonbury, and Lollapalooza.
