Simulacra

This track is celebrating those beautiful stolen moments first thing in the morning, when you exist purely in your body. The sun’s not quite risen, eyes blurred, and feeling is all that matters. Before the jolt of the nervous system kicking in with all the stresses and weight of the day ahead - before you’ve gotta ‘be’ in the world and carry yourself through the day, especially in hard times. These are my favourite moments, and I feel so blessed to be so held.

Body - Rona Mac

Taken from Cross Wires upcoming second album ‘Yesterday In Mourning’ which we be released via Culture War Records on 5th May,
