When indie\u002Flo-fi rock band figures from here called it quits in late 2006 half of the band regrouped and started experimenting with new ways of writing songs and playing with sound. The process of twisting and turning knobs and flipping songs inside out went on for almost a year before they decided to start for real. The trio consisting of Sonja Perander, Jonas Hagberth and Robert Wegner asked long time friend and multi instrumentalist Christine Owman to join the band to complete the calculated chaos that was to become If They Ask, Tell Them We're Dead. A writing process began and after a couple of months the birth of ITATTWD was a definitive. The band made an appearance at a small festival in August 2008 and has since kept the wagon rolling sharing the stage with such great bands as The Besnard Lakes, Beach Fossils, Maps & Atlases and Scraps of Tape.
