"A truly mature and warm sound that's perfect for the incoming autumn weather." - The 405
"A four-song collection rife with lingering lyrics, vastly rich soundscapes, and dextrous songwriting abilities." - The Music Ninja
"The sweeping instrumentation with Barnard’s vocals make for a poppy, accessible sound that I’m betting will make waves far beyond their native England in short order.” - There Goes The Fear

‘All At Once’ the first single to be shared from the upcoming EP is a stunning, finely wrought track encompassing the eclectic musical background of each member; Lead songwriters from the band, Chris “Barney” Barnard and Tom Piggott have been making music together since they were teenagers, developing an intimate awareness of each other's songwriting, the band is completed by percussionist/breakbeat specialist Henri Grimes and classically-trained cello player Mariona De Lamo.
The EP has been produced and mixed by long term collaborators Carey Willetts (Jagaara, Athlete, Daniel James) and Gordon Mills jr (Ed Sheeran, Lucy Spraggan, Mark Morriss).
