Valet is comprised of Irish native and singer/songwriter Robin Kyle, Kris Lightner (bass), Paul Fugelsted (keyboards), and ex-Mollycuddle mate Judd Hildreth (drums). When Kyle emigrated to Minneapolis in 1994, he met Hildreth. From there, the four-piece became official in 2000. While maintaining praise for their dream pop sound around the Midwest, Valet's debut album The Glamour Is Contagious was released in late 2001. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
