Formed in late 2009. Braxton Hix are London-based singing duo Ben Parker & Kate Aumonier.

Ben Parker, a former member of band Ben & Jason who released 4 albums on Universal between '99 & '03, spent most of the last year working on the John Lennon biopic 'Nowhere Boy' and producing music for TV shows 'Skins' & 'How Not To Live Your Life' he also writes with and produces other artists at his own studio in North London.

Aumonier, formerly signed to Sanctuary in early 00's, was discovered by legendary Rolling Stones producer Glyn Johns, who put Kate with his son, producer Ethan, (Kings Of Leon, Ray Lamontagne, Paolo Nutini etc.). Kate's band then went on to tour with James Blunt. She also sung alongside Linda Rondstadt & Emmylou Harris as part of the Ethan John's produced 'Tuscon Sessions' recordings.

The two have been writing together for other artists and naturally begun writing and singing together for their own project in 2009. They plan to make a record in the summer for release towards the end of the year.
