My Left Boot combine elements of 70s fuzz rock, 60s psychedelia and grunge era heavyness with high energy and pinch of salt to form a band that is both exciting and high in blood pressure.

In late 2005 The Boot released "Season of the Time", a 5 track EP which gave hints of their developing sound.
