Ace of Bass

 As a quick follow-on from my post on Aug 23rd,

Simon was back with us for rehearsal last night and will be with us for the EP live-launch on the 14th!

I Wish I could Watch

 

I Wish I Could Fall

We're thrilled to unveil our brand new, unusually for us jazz influenced video-single "I Wish I Could Fall", featuring footage from our recording sessions at Fox Barn Studios. This track is a departure from our usual sounds, giving you a taste of what’s to come before our full 5-track EP "Scribble On a Cheat Sheet" suffused with rock, funk, and folk rock vibes, releases everywhere from September 12th, 2025. 

I Wish I could Fall is a celebration of platonic love; feelings from when you're getting to know someone who is kind of perfect for you in every way, but there just isn't that romantic/sexual fire present - but a lifelong friendship is born. 

We really hope you love it as much as we enjoyed making it, and get ready for the full EP takeover!

Thank you for watching and listening,

Our lovely bass playing friend and partner in creative endeavours Simon has some important stuff to do that wouldn't be fair to go into on a public forum, but it meant that we had to cancel a previous show (only the 2nd ever cancellation by the way - a record we're very proud of) and we also turned down a very nice festival offer.

Now we're currently not certain if Simon will be joining us for the EP live launch night but at rehearsal last night we thought we'd better make plans for 3 piece versions of the songs. As well as the strong urge to celebrate our EP, A significant milestone for us - we also have responsibilities to the venue & the other lovely acts we've booked to support us. 

What I can say is that if this will be a 3-piece version of the band playing the launch night  then we have made some minor plus some significant changes to the 5 EP tracks in order to make them work in a live scenario without Simon's very significant creative input. 

In particular the opening track on the recording "The Stronger You Love" is a powerful riff-based rocker, almost a punk version of this song in the studio version that just doesn't work played in the same way without Simon's bass, so drummer Dave had some good ideas of turning it into a lilting, off-beat, swing version for the acoustic version we tried out last night, and instead of ripping a rock-guitar solo for instance - I carved some jazz chords into the solo section.

So if it turns out that we play the launch as an acoustic 3 piece, you will at least get to hear some very unique versions of these songs!
