"These songs are delicate and powerful. There is something other worldly about them. Maybe someone opened a time capsule... I don't know. But what I do know is the songs will disarm you, amaze you, make you emotional and you will want to hear them again" Rob Bozas Head of A&R Long Tale Recordings
ELLIOT HALL
