about

The album's first single, “Through to You”, is a song about yearning to connect with other people, attempting to peel back the curtain of solitude that has engulfed us over the last 15 months or so. Written during the first lockdown, when hope for a bit of familiarity was starting to blossom, it zeroes in on the desire to feel close to someone without having to speak a word. The band addresses this notion beautifully, both lyrically as a feeling of “flowing through the veins of another heart,” and musically with the brightest jangly melodies on the album and a wistfully sweet vocal.

Speaking about the song, guitarist/vocalist Craig Fahner says: "It's an unabashedly nostalgic song, both musically and lyrically. It’s about teenage love, fucking around in the summertime, and most of all, the joy of finding a shared language beyond words to connect with the people around you – a language that operates outside of the rigidity of everyday life.”

The video, created by Fahner and Michelle Lemay, features the band performing live in-studio. It harkens back to the '70s and '80s German TV programme Beat Club, which featured live performances from musicians playing against a backdrop of analog video psychedelia.
