Handbrake

The 2nd single from our debut album ‘Is It Too Late To Freak Out?’ - Releasing October 22nd

No Reasons

'Picture of You' revolves around creating an idealised image of somebody based on interactions through a phone screen rather than meeting them in person. The idea of a meet cute is ancient history thanks to various dating apps that have become available.

This song acts as a poignant commentary on how digital platforms have transformed the landscape of romance. While they offer new opportunities for connection, they also challenge us to consider the value of authenticity and genuine human interaction in building meaningful relationships.

Picture of You

////////////////

There’s a rabbit under my bed
“Tricks are for kids” I thought I read
Still I’m out here
Top hat and cane
You came to see magic
 
Sang you this tune
Fumbled the lines
Flicking at ashtrays for a sign
You lit a smoke and sighed as you said
"Aww, isn’t this tragic?"

Waning Crescent
Mental muscles fear the dark
Crashed a party I’m too scared to start 

Tell me
Where are we sleeping?
I had a thought 
Sweeter than Sweden 
Played out
King of the evening
When morning comes 
I’ll be staring up at the ceiling
Maybe I’m just a boy in a band
Still chasing what I can’t

Found the right crew
Didn’t need much 
Started a band, look at our luck
Kinda conceded
These boys were all that I needed

Humbled ending 
Empty bleachers in the park
Crashed a party I’m too scared to start 

Tell me
Where are we sleeping
I had a thought 
Sweeter than Sweden 
Played out
King of the evening
When morning comes 
I’ll be staring up at the ceiling
Knowing I’m just a boy in a band
Just chasing what I can

Just A Boy In A Band

Paint by Number

Paint By Number

All around the world
People are ringing their hands,
Why oh why oh why oh why,
Can’t we learn to love each other?
Is what they say,
As if that’s the only way

Maybe it’s not,
Maybe that kinda jumped up sentiment’s part of the mess we got ourselves into

Maybe it’s best to let people get on with it, 
Maybe they’ll let you get on too…

Seems to me, 
That toleration holds the key,
Yeah it’s the very foundation of a dream situation,
Can’t you see? 
It’s such a wonderful thing,

I want to raise your expectations,
I want to say what I’ve been dying to say, 
Want to achieve my aspiration, 
I want to be part of a tolerant nation

Maybe it’s true, 
Maybe just putting up with each other’s a remarkable thing to do, 
For me and you 

Maybe it’s best to say live and let live each day,
Maybe they’ll say the same thing too…

Seems to me, 
That toleration holds the key,
Yeah it’s the very foundation of a dream situation,
Can’t you see? 
It’s such a wonderful thing

I want to raise your expectations,
I want to say what I’ve been dying to say, 
Want to achieve my aspiration, 
I want to be part of a tolerant nation

I wanna go, I wanna see,
I wanna know, I wanna be

I want to raise your expectations,
I want to say what I’ve been dying to say, 
Want to achieve my aspiration, 
I want to be part of a tolerant nation

Yellowhammer

Release date: sep 5th 

lyrics: 
thought I'd never get this far
they say that we could have it all 
closer than I've ever been 
turns out some things are worse from within 

think it's good for you and for me 
that some things are kept out of reach 

falling behind 
falling behind 
I am falling behind 

what if all I ever do
is bathe in thoughts to remind me of you 
wanting what I haven't tried 
can't compare to what we left behind

think it's good for you and for me 
that some things are kept out of reach 

falling behind 
falling behind 
I am falling behind

Falling Behind
