Small Sound

Five tracks of sun-drenched, piano-led pop recorded with Richard Swift. A warm, tape-saturated bridge between their sailing roots and sophisticated studio craft.

It's like a warm hug from a 1970s radio station that only plays the good stuff.

A warm, autumnal nostalgia that feels like looking at old polaroids of a summer you never actually had.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the piano chords on Mean Streets carry a soulful, slightly syncopated weight that anchors the breathy vocals.

The shimmering, reverb-drenched guitar melody that opens Cured of Youth, evoking a hazy summer memory.

The intimate, dry drum sound on Timothy that feels like it was recorded in a small, wood-paneled room.
