Moose were a Britishindie rock band who formed in London in 1990. The original line-up included Russell Yates (guitar, vocals), K.J. "Moose" McKillop (guitar, vocals), Damien Warburton (drums), and Jeremy Tishler (bass). After Warburton and Tishler left the band they were replaced with Lincoln Fong (bass), his brother Russell (guitar), and Richard Thomas (drums). Other members have included Mig Moorland (drums) and Mick Conroy (keyboards).^[2]

Moose released two EPs onHut Records.^[2] Within the next few years the band released two albums onPlay It Again Sam. Despite a strong critical response, Moose's albums continued to sell few copies. Following the release of their third album,Live a Little Love a Lot, Moose took an extended break from music only to return five years later with the release ofHigh Ball Me!. The bulk ofHigh Ball Me! had been recorded in 1996 and 1997, (with one song, "There's a Place," dating from 1993), but sat unreleased as the band members decided whether or not to continue with Moose. "This River Will Never Run Dry" featured on the Britpop collection,The Brit Box.

McKillop went on to become a founding member of the supergroupPiroshka, along with his partnerMiki Berenyi (formerly ofLush), Justin Welch (Elastica) and Michael Conroy (Modern English).
