EP Title? Take Cover

How many releases do you have now? Six albums and a host of EPs, including our newest, Take Cover.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? We found inspiration from classic songs from artists that we grown to love. Also, we took on challenges and reinterpreted uncommon songs like Love Will Tear Us Apart

What's your favourite song on it? Remember The Time.

We'll like this EP if we like... New Orleans brass and the King Of Pop.

When and where is your launch/next gig? Currently, we’re flying to Cairns in Australia. Tomorrow evening, March 2, we play at the Tanks Art Center.
