In the live music void left by the coronavirus pandemic we finally found the time to make a record. From Leeds, London, Liverpool and Cologne, we lugged instruments and gear to a farmhouse at the end of a country track in mid-Wales. We were in the middle of the countryside, surrounded by rolling green hills, streams and valleys, as well as an unexpected military firing range and the annual sheep-shearing session. Listen closely and you can hear explosions and bleating.

Big love and thanks to the Wanton family who have endlessly nurtured us with their wonderful dancing and irrepressible good vibes. You know who you are.
