How long did it take to write/record? We wrote it over a series of two-three day weekends over a few months, then we recorded it in five days and mixed over another week or so.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? We listen so widely and gregariously that everything ends up inspiring us but nothing specific.

What’s your favourite song on it? We like a different one every time. We’re really proud of the whole album.

Will you do anything differently next time? We always do everything differently every time.

When and where is your launch/next gig? 24 Oct, Caravan Music Club and 25 Oct, The Toff In Town.
