About the album

It started when Brettin stayed at Stu Mackenzie's house after Gizzfest in December 2016: the two traded iPhone voice memos, called them sketches, and fleshed them out together in about three weeks. The result is loose, lounge-y and very warm, with "The Spider And Me" and "Rolling Stoned" among the highlights.

It was the third of five albums the band put out in 2017, which tells you everything about their work rate. Most bands take longer than that to choose a font.
