OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

Emma Hunter (vocals, guitar and loops) and Tom Bruce, (drums) enjoy exploring the world of David Lynch and dark, flamenco inspired music in and around the Oxford gig circuit. 

In this EP the duo explore the world of Yolanda. In the song 'Here I Go' which has received fantastic reviews, the main character of the song wonders if she should leave a dangerous relationship. The song includes dark, surf-guitar with a cinematic layering of vocals. In 'Nightingale' she falls in love with someone else, from a distance, watching her, listening to her sing and hoping to make a change. This song take influences from the music of Twin Peaks with vibes of dark jazz and rockabilly guitars. ‘Treacle Well’ is a step away from the imaginary world of Yolanda and uses only vocals and drums to create a layered world of vocals and beats. The song is about a fear of failure and the concept of ‘falling down the rabbit hole’ and the sensation of feeling panicked and overwhelmed by your dreams. Using Oxford and ‘Alice in Wonderland’ as inspiration, the video also attempts to create this sense of unease and confusion.

The final song on the EP ‘Window’ is about the persona most people portray in an attempt to cover up how they actually feel. The idea that not everything is as it seems and if you only look more closely, there are always two sides to any story, statue or work of art. Taking inspiration from artists such as The Shangri-Las and Mazzy Star, this track is drenched in loops and reverb.
