Before forming Babacar in the late 1990s, vocalist Caroline Crawley sang in Shelleyan Orphan until their breakup in 1993, while guitarist Rob Steen and bassist Roberto Soave played together in Presence and drummer Boris Williams (Crawley's then-boyfriend) played for almost a decade with The Cure. Soave and Williams also played together on Shelleyan Orphan's third album Humroot and performed live together with The Cure when Soave was asked to fill in for Simon Gallup when he fell ill during the European leg of the Wish tour, Soave filled in for him on bass.[3] Although Jemaur Tayle, the other half of Orphan, later joined in, he did not participate in the recording of the group's sole album.[4][5]
