The band formed in 1989 as The Droogs (later The London Droogs) and released a self-titled EP in 1991. They changed their name to The Gandharvas in 1993, named after male musical spirits in Hinduism. In November 1993 they signed with Watch Music, and in 1994 released their debut album as The Gandharvas, titled A Soap Bubble and Inertia. The album included the single "The First Day of Spring" named Song of the Year (CASBY Award) by The Edge 102.1 in Toronto, nominated for MuchMusic's Video of the Year. In 1995, they released their sophomore album Kicking in the Water, and shortly after signed by MCA Records. Their 1997 release, Sold for a Smile (where the current song originated), which also included "Downtime". All three albums were also released in Japan on the label Avex DD. Though Sold for a Smile was a minor commercial success (with "Downtime" receiving substantial play at MuchMusic), the album was the band's last, as the grunge/alternative movement of the 1990s faded in popularity. They announced their breakup in 2000. Following the break-up of the band, Beau Cook returned to his former band, Smoother. Eric Howden is now the singer-songwriter for the Canadian band Raised by Swans. Vocalist Paul Jago became a geologist and moved to Arizona, later forming the band SAID DOG.
