The group initally formed to compete in the National Campus Band Competition in 1997. Temperley and Quartermain were already in a band at the time, Freud's Pillow, but had met with little success and asked Temperley's childhood friend MacLeod to form a new band, which became Eskimo Joe.

And man I gotta say you have aged
C5 A5
So tell me what I look like in your eyes

Well five years should’ve been long enough
B5 E5
To forget the past but I try
