We’ve been included in the “Tip Tape” for 2013 by God Is In The TV.
They had this to say about us :)
Their only recorded release to date ‘ Little Games’ hints at their commercial potential a gorgeously bittersweet pop song with Jennie’s dulcet vocals offering a strident edge to their alt-pop sound that’s the interesting meeting place between the most commercial cuts...

We are doing Movember!
A little while ago we heard from our friends in Plastic Youth that their drummer Kieran had been diagnosed with testicular cancer. As you can imagine this was shocking news to us, and we all felt for him and his bandmates. No one ever thinks this will happen to them or anyone they know. Thankfully Kieran is doing ok now but it hit home with us and so we’ve decided to do Movember.
Admittedly...

'Little Games' reviewed by Magic Chords
‘Little Games’ has been reviewed by the American music blog Magic Chords
Here’s a nice little quote from it :)
It has almost a “Treefingers” style to it, with lead guitar playing soft little melodies and the rhythm guitar almost just creating ambiance in the background. It makes everything feel airy and kinda spacey, but still has that Best Coast, surf-and-sunshine feel to...

Here’s a little snippet of the nice things she says:

‘Little Games’ has been reviewed by Australian music blog We Talk, You Die.
Look at the lovely things they say about us!
The track is a bittersweet coming of age tale, recounted with a spirited frankness that epitimises the Welsh quartet’s sound. Where the tom-boyish vocals of lead singer, Jen, soar aloft over warped pop choruses that recall The Pains of Being Pure At Heart fused...
