Form dance tinted tracks such as ‘Tracks such as the high-octane ‘Electric 2.0’, to the more melancholic and thoughtful ‘Sleep With My Light On’, the album offers an in-depth delve into the bands sound.
Speaking about the release, the duo explain: “We are so excited to finally release our first album. This has been a work in progress for so long as we were constantly writing new music and we changed our tracklist so many times! It includes songs we have released so far, plus some new songs and new versions of released songs. We feel like the title really reflects what the album is about. There is a very good mix of sounds and energy, but they are all linked together by common feelings and vibes. There is a lot of vulnerability , frustration and nostalgia but at the same time a lot of positivity, sassiness and confidence. We are so proud of it and we can’t wait to share it with people who can connect to it!”
