How long did it take to write/record? We recorded a basic idea and emailed it to Ash, she sent back a verse and we loved it. The rest was really methodical and finished within a couple of sessions.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? Yeah, it's the first track from our debut album! We're finally beyond the scary stage and starting to get really excited about releasing it.  

What was inspiring you during the song's writing and recording? We normally draw inspiration from personal experience or try to encapsulate a certain emotion during the process, but this track happened so organically that we didn't want to stop and overthink everything.

We'll like this song if we like… Driving at night. 

Do you play it differently live? It's basically the same. We played it live with Ash in Perth and it sounded so good! Recently Nat from Dianas has been singing Ash's parts and killing it!

When and where is your launch/next gig? Our next show is 16 March, The Workers Club supporting Retro Culture. We'll be playing a bunch of new stuff from our album so I can't wait!
