Tracks Evolution and Blue Tone Black Heart were released last year while the latest single Honey is currently at radio. The album's title track featuring backing vocals from former Killing Heidi frontwoman turned solo performer and presenter Ella Hooper.

Due out Friday 18 April through Inertia, the band will be playing an album launch show Friday 9 May at Melbourne's Corner Hotel – where they will play it through in its entirety. A full tour will follow in August/September.

Pre-orders are available through iTunes or on vinyl through the band's own site. The band are managed by Lemon Tree Music, also home to Pierce Brothers, and booked locally by Damo Costin at 123 Agency.
