In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Our first show was at Night & Day in Manchester the day after Brexit. We were meant to open but bands kept dropping out and we got moved up the bill until we were headlining. There was a great turnout, including a hen party, and we had a lovely time. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? The Jezabels, Synthia Fran - Synthia. The best record of the 2010s. A towering and lush piece of shoegazey synth-pop. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Wallenberg” This is the first song we wrote together that was good enough to record and play live. It was 2 different ideas that we combined. Josh spent a long time listening to an interview about Raoul Wallenberg to find the samples. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Supporting And So I Watch You From Afar in Huddersfield. A huge influence on us and they were absolutely lovely. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? We're part of a really thriving scene and would love to play with more bands who we are already fans of.
