Caught In Time, So Far Away

Tamaryn - Love Fade

See and Sleep is a slowcore, alt-folk earworm - a raw confessional with airy, aching vocals over a distorted electric guitar hook and windswept production haze, heavy with longing and regret. 

Think Mazzy Star, Big Thief, Alex G, Slow Pulp. The single features production by Daniel Montague O'Brien, electric guitar and vocals by Barnburner, additional bass guitar by Dara Abdurahman (of Bricknasty), and drums by Matteo Poli (of Big Sleep). It was recorded at Paradise Studios by Greg Tisdall and mastered by Hermetech Mastering (Filmore!, Kayleigh Noble).

“I need to see you, for you to see me. I need to sleep beside you, for you to sleep beside me.”

Lyrically, the song is about the need to be close to someone who is slipping away. Close in every sense, not just romantic or sexual. Close, if only just, in the comfort of sharing space, of bodies existing side by side. See and Sleep is about the emptiness of a bed too wide, empty without the warmth of another in it. It is about regret. Sleeping on commitments. The missed alarms and moments that are memories now. It’s about the frustration of trying to change for someone who wouldn’t meet you halfway, or resenting them for not changing for you. See and Sleep is about yearning: the desperate need to be seen, understood, and held by the one you love, even (and especially) as they drift out of reach.

-----
On the third floor of an abandoned textile mill to the north of Preston, a wave of strange musical beauty is blossoming. Brought up on the sounds of 80s Manchester though too young to have experienced it first hand, White Flowers, made up of Katie Drew and Joey Cobb, make gloriously gothic dreampop that’s as ambiguous as it is beautiful and exciting.

On 15th January 2020, the duo release Night Drive the first track from their debut double A-sided single Tough Love Records which also features the track Portra.

Co-produced by Doves’ guitarist, Jez Williams, Night Drive’s guitars carry a Kevin Shields-esque drone, as they swirl above its fragmented arrangement. Apocalyptic in nature, it twists and turns - thematically covering anxiety, fragility and frustration, while reminding that, even in the lowest of moments, one should not lose hope. 

‘Creating and crafting the songs has always been a therapeutic outlet for us,’ Cobb stated. ‘It’s been a long process, but it’s been one which has helped us deal with the frustration, worries and difficulties that come with every day life. It’s definitely a very cathartic record. It serves as a kind of journal of growing up and maturing in the 21st Century.’

Having begun life as scraps of ideas on a laptop, the songs were carefully crafted by the pair, before Williams got on board. 

‘At times, it’s easy to lose sight of the bigger picture when you’re so involved in the song,’ Drew noted. ‘Jez was great at drawing out the most important aspects. A lot of the songs are first takes - recorded at home in a very lo-fi way, but Jez gave us confidence. He made us realise that the rawness and the accidents are where the magic is. As fans of Doves, we’ve always admired the soundscapes and sampling techniques that they use, so it was a privilege to work with him.
Prior to the release, White Flowers will be heading out on tour with Toy to celebrate Independent Venue Week. The dates are as follows:

25.01.20 – Independent – SUNDERLAND

20.01.20 – Esquires – BEDFORD
31.01.20 – The Joiners – SOUTHAMPTON
01.02.20 – Ramsgate Music Hall – RAMSGATE

The double A-side single, Night Drive / Portra will be released on 12” vinyl on February 14th and is limited to 100 copies. It comes in a hand stamped sleeve and includes a ‘zine produced by the band. The band’s debut album will be released later in 2020.
