Fresh from the green fields of Glastonbury and the bright lights of the Big Apple, this Manchester 4-piece bring us their debut EP, featuring two tracks that showcase their diverse sound. "Three Steps" rumbles along on a propulsive drum rhythm, cut through with subtle guitar chimes, eerie cello and a nice vocal melody, before the tempo ups with some sharp snare snaps and twanging guitars. "Last Thing On Your Mind" is a much slower, contemplative affair with lonesome country vocals over delicately picked guitar, strings and brushed drums. Lovely stuff and easily a match for 'next-big-thing' contenders Mumford & Sons and the like. - (Piccadilly Records - Sept 09)
