“One of the best bands we’ve had in session for a long time. Beautiful”
…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. ” …Marcus O'Dair, The Independent / Juice Radio
