Press:
A strong afropop element creates a heartbeat in each of their songs on their newest release Ours, and pianos are glittery across the top, nicely complementing the surrounding landscape of reverb drenched guitars. When the above elements are paired with skittering drums, and stomping bass, the result is a sound that prompts the same feeling of looking out the window at an oasis during a long drive through the desert. As listeners, we are being rewarded for taking time to make our way somewhere. They know where we’re going, but they aren’t telling us.

Warning! It’s a funkaedlic monster that basically just shouts ‘Dance, dance!’ at you all the time. Get your groove on right here.
