Formed by three friends, Dave Okumu, Tom Herbert and Leo Taylor, The Invisible initially formed to work on what was supposed to be Dave's solo project. During the process of this project the three members organically formed a fully-fledged trio and the band was born.
The eponymous album which emerged became a surprise success and saw The Invisible nominated for The Mercury Awards Prize in 2009. It is a refreshingly original offering with alternative indie rock themes, mixed with some electro and funk.
