What’s It Like Over There?

A cinematic pivot toward piano-led melodies and glossy production. This record trades sun-drenched guitars for late-night urban atmosphere and big, pop-leaning hooks.

It's like they took their indie-rock energy and moved it into a high-end piano lounge in LA.

A sophisticated, cinematic reflection on change and artifice with a glossy pop heart.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The gospel-tinged piano chords that anchor the soaring chorus of Times Won’t Change Me.

The sudden shift into a moody, synth-heavy groove on Me, Myself and Hollywood.

The vulnerable, stripped-back orchestral swell during the climax of The Way We Say Goodbye.
