Leeds quartet Crake have today announced their debut album, ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’. It arrives via Fika Recordings on April 8th. The band have also shared the album’s lead single, ‘Winter’s Song’. 

Led by enigmatic songwriter Rowan Sandle, Crake is driven by her endless curiosity. Armed with her gently cracking vocal, and inspiration from writers like Shirley Jackson and Nan Shepherd, she sings of crinoids, slime mould and pussy willow. When they supported Buck Meek at Brudenell Social Club, Buck found himself so beguiled by Sandle and her band that he invited them to support Big Thief on their UK and EU tour in 2019. Crake duly obliged and have been building towards their debut full-length ever since. 

Much of the forthcoming album revolves around the death of Sandle’s friend Anna, who died in Syria after being hit by a Turkish air strike. Anna was working for a woman’s liberation group in the war-stricken country when the tragedy took place. ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ explores the grief that followed and the lessons learnt from dealing with such a significant loss. 

Sandle does, however, find space to explore more themes alongside this grief, such as cruelty and queer nature. On lead single ‘Winter’s Song’ she acknowledges the cruelty and coldness that exists within us all, and questions how we can continue to grow and love whilst remaining true to that. 

Speaking about the track, she said: “Winter’s Song is about the absolute mundane beauty of being fallible. It's a true story, I saw the moon rise but swore it was the sun setting. I think about this line a lot: “keep a little coldness in you, just wear it soft and gentle” Be soft, be kind, be honest. Being unremarkable has its own beauty.” 

Sandle’s love for queer nature is so fervent that it makes the experience of listening to Crake akin to that of stumbling on an entirely new world. Sandle believes that life isn’t as black and white as we’ve been taught, and thinks nature holds the key to revealing the true nature of human experience. The appearances of things like slime mould - single-celled organisms that form a single body when in search of food  - brittle starfish - a type of starfish whose awareness isn’t concentrated in one place - and other such oddities furnish ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ with a folklore all of its own. 

‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ will send you down multiple rabbit holes and you’ll emerge from each with a newfound appreciation for the complexities of the world. Perhaps even more important than this though is the humanity that lies at the very heart of this debut full-length. Whether it’s in the sensitivity in how she portrays the loss of her friend, the depiction of our most base instincts - namely cruelty, passion and love - or the sincere, pure quality of the songwriting itself, it’s this that makes ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ essential, and invaluable listening.

Please allow us to introduce you to 'Stop and Listen', an upbeat stomper that tells the story of two people pulling in opposite directions throughout a fractious relationship. Born out of a period of negativity and frustration, writing and recording the song has been a cathartic process - one that has taken what was once a sensitive subject matter and bundled it into our own little sing-a-long anthem, all tied up with a soul-pop bow. On a thematic level, ‘Stop and Listen’ is for anyone who’s been through troubles and disagreements with friends, struggles with anxiety, control and inward reflection, but it’s also just for anyone who wants to dance!

BROKE AF (demo)

Alegria de Viver, Quarteto Series. This song was released in 2024 in the Album under the same name. "The Joy to Live" is a song dedicated to my father "Ne" who passed away in midst of 2024. His love and passion for all the little things that were actually great things such as watering orchids and passion for life and nature is what this groovy Bossa is all about. Here recorded live in Brazil at Fazenda das Cabras, with the wonderful Quarteto... Lazinho Batuck drums, Gileade Philip keys, Derek Banach trumpet and Dado Sa voice and guitar. Hope you enjoy and stay tuned for weekly releases from the Quarteto Series recordings.

Alegria de Viver, sessões Quarteto. Esta canção foi gravada em 2024 no Álbum de mesmo nome e agora regravada ao vivo na Fazenda das Cabras, Joaquim Egídio SP com o formato de quatro músicos. Essa é uma canção dedicada a meu pai que partiu deste mundo em 2024. O amor e paixão que ele tinha pelas coisas que as vezes são vistas como pequenas mas que são grandes como regar as orquídeas, cortar as bananas do cacho, alegria de viver e a natureza são descritas aqui como beleza e influencia nessa Bossa Jazzística. Com a presença de Lazinho Batuck na percuteria, Gileade Philip nos teclados, Derek Banach no trompete e Dado Sa voz e violão. Fica a dedicação, a saudades, o amor e a dica.

Life In Outer Space (lyrics)

She took me to the park
The one next to the flower shop
People dress the same
You make it feel ok
She puts me on the train
She’s dancing in the dining car
The chaos in your brain
I knew you were special

Lately lately
Baby baby
Takes me takes me
Wherever she wants
I know always
I know nothing
I’ll be I’ll be
Wherever you are

She turned on the news
They say it’s a catastrophe
We’ll be under water
Too bad for our daughters
She took me by the hand
Got us on a satellite
It’s life in outer space
I knew you were special

Chorus

We’ll land safely
Someday maybe
Drifting deeper
Into the dark
To a random planet
Like she planned it
Safe from humans
Where we can suvive

Lately lately
Baby baby
Takes me takes me
Wherever she wants
I know always
I know one thing
I’ll be I’ll be 
Wherever you are
