Press

“On first listen they seem like a slightly more classical sounding Dirty Three. It’s beautiful, intense and compelling. But as the you’re taken on a journey, throughout their set, you get the impression you’re hearing something much much bigger. In fact, despite numbering just three, you could well be hearing a full orchestra at times, the execution is that powerful. When Dorr steps up to the mic to add in some vocals, the vibe changes slightly. The previously overarching ethereal classical sound becomes much more contemporary, with a definite nod towards Spiritualized or Sigur Ros. You can imagine this music in a number or scenarios; a soundtrack to a film, playing as the sun goes down on an idyllic rural festival or seeing you safely into a slumber on a cold winter’s night”
