Event details

Having self-released several early singles, the band were first introduced to a worldwide audience with their 7” ‘Gastown/River Song’ released as a Third Man Records Blue Series, which Jack White produced and played drums on. The band has toured the world with the likes of White himself, Seasick Steve, The Dead Weather, Richard Hawley and Public Service Broadcasting after collaborating on the single ‘Valentina’.

Their debut album proper ‘Through Low Light and Trees’ received rave reviews, MOJO giving it four stars and describing the record as “heartfelt and sensual… poised and elegant”. The album went on to be named one of American Songwriter’s Top 50 albums of 2011.

To celebrate their incredible body of work the band released a singles compilation last year and put on a one-off Singles Night live shows where they performed each of their 18 single releases to date back-to-back to a sell-out crowd.

2022 also saw the release of the “Sticks And Stones” EP. The first three tracks to be taken from their forthcoming 6th studio album, scheduled for release in Autumn 2023.
