Simon Nelson and Alice Hubley met on the London Underground after a Stereo Totale gig in 2009. Two days later Simon was round Alice's house unblocking her kitchen drain. Since then Simon has been round and put up two curtain rails, a blind and a shelf in exchange for badly cooked pasta and pear cider. When they are not doing DIY they like to talk Beach Boys, analogue synths and procrastination techniques and occasionally play music together abley assisted by Dan Chapman and The Late Jonny Tansey. You may recognise the Cosines from such other bands as Arthur and Martha, Vermont, The Loves, Brother Francisco, The Duloks and One Fathom Down, maybe.
