“Music with lyrics this good is the kind of daydream we need in England to reignite a spark for credible new songwriters” – NME
“Food and drink to lovers of Americana-folk” – Folkwords Magazine
A spellbinding musical experience with two guitars, two voices and a harmonica brace. Add to that the flamboyant and passionate violin and piano of Charlie Rose and you have yourself a huge sound, redolent of the songwriters of a bygone age. The songs Sarah Larkham and Elliot Hall create are equal parts faded romance and passion, with a little rock growl creeping in from the shadows that hints at a life growing up listening to Janis Joplin. Both have an innate sense of what it takes to create a melodic beauty, interlacing vocal harmonies with expertly crafted lyrics, pulling at the heart-strings. Their live shows seamlessly ‘genre-skip’, interweaving shimmering Americana with lyric-led uptempo latin rhythms, rock and blues, displaying their wide influences from Bob Dylan to Steve Van Zandt, Fleetwood Mac to Cuban salsa.
