The band was formed in 2005, when lead vocalist, Samuel “Ham” Higginson, met guitarist, Peter “Pork” Peterson, and drummer, Lilly “Sow” Sanders, at a local music festival. They quickly discovered their shared passion for creating unique music that challenges the status quo. The band’s eccentric name, Infatuated Pig, was inspired by Higginson’s beloved childhood pet pig, who had an odd fondness for Ham’s guitar playing.
