“All the songs on the EP are written about real experiences which is something that we felt was really important for this project. From the adrenaline filled beginnings of a new relationship through to a not so happy ending, this EP follows the journey of a first love.
Sonically the EP has gone in a new direction than our previous work, with more of a produced sound while keeping the band feel.”
Full line-up is Tom Chamberlain -vocals, Angus Hampton-Carr - lead guitar, Leo Crawshaw-Bond - guitar, Carlos Martin - bass, and Te Kapua Pene - drums.
