Take Me to Church E.P.

A powerful introduction of liturgical soul and swampy blues. Deep baritone vocals meet cathedral-sized reverb and intimate, rain-soaked acoustic folk.

Moments Worth Listening For
The thunderous choral explosion in the first chorus of track 1, mimicking a secular gospel awakening.
The delicate, almost breathless fingerpicking on track 13 that contrasts the heavy lyrical themes of domestic cycle.
The rhythmic, hand-clap driven pulse of track 2 that feels like a delta blues ritual in a modern setting.
