I’ve been late in getting up to date with this Tunbridge Wells five-piece but I’m definitely on the boat now with their third album, released this week.
The label “folk rock” sends shudders of the worst aspects of “Mumford and Sons” (I’m not a fan of them) but this is more vintage old-school than some kind of latter day twiddling and the music is all the better for it.
