Fruit

Who said pop can't ponder?
Since forming in 2014, The Room Upstairs have grown into album-era hanger-on-ers. They decorate themselves in retro-tinged melodies and folk-rock lyricisms: musing on mortality; nostalgia; the passage of time; and emotional life crises, be it quarter, mid, or just general "ran-out-of-milk" stuff. That said, they also wrote this biography themselves, so maybe have a listen and debate the likelihood of bias.
Hugs,
Ewan and Joe (The Room Upstairs) x
