about

This album brings together our recordings, made between 2014 and 2019. The project takes influence from, and aims to celebrate through tribute, the likes of Ray Charles, Van Morrison, Elton John and the great big bands of the swing era. All the songs began as poems by Richard Stevens, which Ed set to music before working with the band to develop them into the songs presented here. Enjoy!
