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.

Everything Is Fine

Pour toi 
J'ai caché mes yeux malheureux
Ahhhh
Vite, prends-moi dans tes bras
Comme la première fois 
Comme un cadeau magique
Comment s'aimer sans crier
Comme un animal sauvage
Un animal en cage

Donne-moi des bisous
Des bisous partout
Donne-moi des bisous
Des bisous partout

Des Bisous Partoud

Des Bisous Partout

J'ai touché sa peau du bout des doigts
Un long frisson, elle me regardait
Un feu de paille sur son visage
Une femme à la peau bleue

Sa voix envoûtante, quel est ton nom ?
J'ai répondu à quoi bon dire je t'aime
Quand l'amour n'est qu'un rêve
Comme la femme à la peau bleue

Ahhh ahh ahh ahh

En passant par l'hotel Delmano
Son visage et les yeux plein d'eau
D'un simple geste de la main
De la femme à la peau bleue

Cent fois j'ai prié pour la revoir
J'ai quelque chose à confesser
Depuis le soir où j'ai rêvé 
D'une femme à la peau bleue 

Ahhhh ahhh ahh ahhh

The Undercover Dream Lovers - All You Need

Singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Charles A. Lewis crafts reflective indie rock that draws on laid-back psych, slacker pop and 70’s soft rock influences. Though Safe Travels is his first official release, he has been producing and writing music for decades. 

A native of Connecticut, Lewis is part of the bedroom artist generation, generally working solo, writing and making music that often sounds as personal and introspective as a diary entry. He moved to Queens in 2009 but most recently spent two years in Seattle where he began recording Safe Travels. 

Now back in New York after a few cross-country road trips, Lewis’ weekender sound is still evolving as he continues to collaborate with friends and his brother and musician, Ricky Lewis.
