From Omaha, Nebraska, The So-So Sailors are five sun-burnt stowaways left adrift upon the high seas. Eagerly awaiting land, they dream of a pristine beach where they can sip coconut milk and shoot pistols without fear of criminal prosecution or possible complaints by the neighbours. Nah, screw that (the coconut part anyway)! It's just Chris Machmuller, Dan McCarthy, Alex McManus, Brendan Walsh and Dan Kemp.

Though a clear departure from the individual members previous projects, citing a clear appreciation for 60's - 70's Lounge and R&B aesthetics, The So-So Sailors are comfortably out of their element. Setting the wheel to a barely visible point on the horizon, and plotting a course for misadventure, the Sailors find that the farther out to sea they travel, the more it feels like home.

These aren’t pop songs, they’re too long for that, but they’re not short of melody. They are stories and memories, of arguments and apologies, break-ups and meet-ups. Tales of love and, like all the best songs, lost love. Layered keys and rolling drums to the fore, it’s a big sound, and a warm sound.

Metamorphose is a feeling captured in time, it is a noisy expression of silence; it's a thought, a cry, a dance and everything within and beyond.
