Miki Berenyi of Lush has revealed her new band Piroshka, including members from Elastica, Moose and Modern English.

Berenyi's new venture features KJ McKillop of Moose, Justin Welch of Elastica, and Michael Conroy of Modern English.

Conroy performed with Berenyi during the last ever Lush gig when their former bassist Phil King quit. On Twitter Berenyi explains, "He was such an amazing star stepping in at the last ever Lush show that I’ve not since let him out of my sight."
