After leaving the confines of one moderately successful psychedelic act (The Stitch In Tyme) and the highly successful but chaotic Lighthouse, Grant Fullerton struggled in the mid-70's to find a new home for his crunchy blues guitar stylings.

After drifting about with the unsuccessful Mudflats and Friends, he formed the Fullerton Dam in September 1974 with Brohman, MacDonald and Negus. They signed with Polydor Records and released two Canadian radio charting singles - "Didn't Break My Heart" and "Tobacco".

Condor Records signed the band in 1976. They released 'Breaks' that same year, but the breaks didn't come their way.

The band split up and Fullerton and MacDonald tried it again as The Madcats; Negus would join the final line-up of Fludd which would eventually mutate into progressive rock act Saga.
