Babel "started out all kind of small, folky & a bit shy, but then fell in dirty love with pounding tamborines and volume knobs." Songs led to concerts, concerts led to the recording two self-financed EPs, 'The Golden Acre EP' & 'The Arc EP'. Both were sold from tables in tiny venues.

In 2007, People Tree Records of London, UK released the majority of their two EPs to the world on one reasonably priced compact disc & weighty slab of vinyl.
