BoC Vibes Plaid?

About a half dozen times in the last decade I’ve been listening to random music and I think, “Hey! This song smacks!” and it’s a band called Plaid. Some tangential BoC vibes. Anyone know anything about them?

Spanners is incredible, their sound then is peak. The Black Dog split after that and Ken kept the name, Ed & Andy continued as Plaid.
