These guys are an Irish band active from 2010 to 2018 and members include Ross Farrelly, Josh McClorey, Pete O'Hanlon, Evan Walsh, and Jack Hayden. Their debut EP came out in 2012 while they were still in school. It gained a lot of interest leading to a bidding war with recording companies. They got signed by Elton John's management company, then signed with Mercury Records. They released their debut single in 2013, followed by another single and then their debut album. They did a bunch of tours and performances before releasing their second album in 2015. In 2017 they tested some new material in shows in Ireland, before releasing it on their next album out that year. They broke up in 2018, but they did appear in the movie Rocketman as Elton John's backing band. I can't find anything that talks about why they broke up so I assume it was just a mutual decision to retire, but you never know what will happen later.
Peace.
