Press

‘Keep it Warm’ kicks off with a hard-hitting thumping drumbeat and a grungy blues guitar track reminiscent of the style of The Black Keys.... Cutting lyrics and unapologetic lead guitars confront the listener...

-- Forte Mag

'Crazy House: We’re off to church and it’s the coolest band playing. The swagger is tempered because of the location but you can just picture the scene when they move the show to the crazy house. Yes, they pull faces and turn the momentum inside out and in the process give the punters the night of their lives. This is a joy, a slick and unassuming delight. It’s the quiet ones you got to watch out for.' - mp3hugger

"A rollicking folk-punk number that starts off as a meandering alt. country-rock ballad before it crescendos into a blazin’, head-banging, psych-groove monster, it’s gunna wear a hole in your shoe from the toe-tapping."

- Scenestr

'This is mysterious rock music. You’ll find yourself feeling a bit befuddled, like you’ve stumbled down the rabbit hole with Alice. But then, suddenly, happily there will be a joyful backing vocal that helps it all make sense. But the spinning, rattling, endearing harmonies all make it feel like a legit crazy house. It’s a delight.' - Ear to the Ground
