Depending on where you came in, this is the latest band guise for Luke Thomas — he formerly of Lavish/The Pictures/The Deserters.
If aware of any of the above, you'll realise he knows his pop history which comes through in the drenched melancholy of Cold Turkey On Christmas Day, or Give It All Up Tonight's best thing Blur never wrote. Thomas works mostly as one-man band, but occasional second vocals from Elly-May Barnes add some softer conversations. The six tracks of this are a handy sampler of his sometimes sentimental take on the craft of pop-song writing.
