Pretty Violet Stain (1996-2001) were "unearthed" by influencial radio station Triple J in 1996 (the band used the moniker Freak at the time). The Brisbane-based 3-piece released a self-funded EP 'Blush', and soon signed a deal with major label Warner. The track "She Keeps Souvenirs" from their 'If The Money's Right' EP became a Triple J anthem, seeing their popularity rise through appearances at such festivals as Homebake. The band also toured with international artists Elliott Smith
