…Dermot O’Leary, BBC Radio 2

“Emotive, epic melodic rock that suggests a blend of Coldplay and Doves.”
…Timeout magazine

"First rate song-writing from one of the tightest and most compelling live acts around. Built for the bar as much as the bedroom, this record is adorned with unexpected musical twists, powerful hooks and ambient textures. An accomplished debut. ”

What a stupendous show in Liverpool on Sunday night! Absolutely brilliant. Perfecto! You always give 100% - but you seem to get better and better every time we see you. Excellent!

Now you can have a break - you deserve it - but I think we're already looking forward to the next one - and the single release too!
