Rich and creamy track for the night

these guys are a solid Sydney roots band - they play smooth, rootsy indie that paints a picture of beaches, surf, and zero worries. i expect to see them trailing the never-ending roots festival circuit in the coming year

Cruisy, but really confident stuff. Each of their songs paints a strong picture of an act with loads of potential.

If only I had known of this song last Friday night driving home from the Blue Mountains watching an electrical storm over the city. This is a really beautiful song and I'm constantly amazed by people that can make a guitar sound so perfect.

Great rolling rhythms in the guitar work, easy to listen to vocals, this is the sound you want in your house come Sunday afternoon. Sweet percussive work, this songs a real peach.

very nice mix between indie and roots here... very polished track... the proffessionalism is very evident

My folks sent me the cd in london and I'm loving it .... Listening to it I feel like I'm lazing by a beach on the south coast of NSW with a beer in hand and the bbq blazing away. Nice one Lads

I would give this 6 stars if I could. Masterfully executed of the 'Less is more' - all budding musicians should listen to this. This is how it's done!

Ooh, amazing track. So different from some of their other stuff too. This one's best-enjoyed with a lime-infused glass of gin and tonic, clove cigarette hanging out of the corner of your mouth as you swing leisurely on your hammock.
