Lovers' Leap is about attraction and self-destruction; about forces beyond our control; about how love chooses us and sets us free. It’s also the name of a cliff in the Derbyshire Dales where a lovesick woman attempted suicide, was saved by her billowing skirt and became reunited with her lover. The track’s release coincides with St. Valentine’s Day and is accompanied by a video by Fat Toad Films (https://youtu.be/EE1rP4hCWXI ) The song was produced by Ben and Robin Christensen-Marriott, who also plays bass on the recordings together with Tobias Sturmer on drums and vocalist Steph Pirrie.
