The band was formed in 2010 and features Isabella 'izzi' Manfredi on vocals/keyboards, Jack Moffitt (guitar), Thomas Champion (bass) and Luke Davison (drums). Gideon Bensen was a member of the band until 2016. In 2013, the band won the Vanda & Young Songwriting Competition with their song 'Is This How You Feel?'.
History
Champion and Moffitt were school friends at Newington College who met Manfredi at the Australian Institute of Music in 2008. They formed a band together and in 2010 added Luke Davison and, now former member, Gideon Bensen and under the name The Preachers.
In 2012, they changed the spelling of their name to The Preatures to avoid legal complications with other bands with similar names, signed with Mercury Records and released the EP Shaking Hands. The EP featured the single 'Take a Card', written by Manfredi with Bensen on lead vocals. It was featured on Triple J Unearthed.
In 2013, they released a second EP, Is This How You Feel? featuring two singles, 'Is This How You Feel?' and 'Manic Baby'. The single 'Is This How You Feel?' attracted considerable success, winning the $50,000 Vanda & Young prize, being nominated for an ARIA Award for Best Pop Release, and being voted ninth in the prestigious Triple J Hottest 100.
Blue Planet Eyes, their debut studio album, was released on 30 September 2014, which peaked at No. 4 on the ARIA Albums Chart. At the ARIA Music Awards of 2015 the group were nominated in three categories.
Gideon Bensen left the band on good terms in March 2016.
