We've had a busy summer with our first UK tour, and a string of festivals but the big news is, we've started work on our debut album. It's being produced by PJ Harvey collaborator and Producer John Parish it's already sounding special. There's no release date set yet, but we can't wait to get it to your ears so we will be previewing of one or two of the tracks here soon.

"I received this CD a couple of weeks ago and since then it has not left the player. The reason for this I think is originality. I haven't heard anything like this before. Unusual time signatures, amazing vocals, skilful playing and highly original songs. For musical competence and originality this get a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED award".
