This comes after the band released their single Lost. Lost is the second single off the band’s upcoming EP Hope, Amongst Other Thing. The EP is due to be released in early 2021, not long after their last EP, 20-Something which was released on August 7th.

Speaking about the meaning of Lost, the band said; “Lost’ was written when I came out of college and experienced a lot of career anxiety. Everyone else seemed to know what they were doing except for me. It seems a fitting time to release it at the end of a year when so many of us faced this challenge. It taught me a lot in hindsight, I think I was probably suppressing a lot of emotions that were manifesting in situations that weren’t really relevant to what was going on inside. It’s a real example of what a therapeutic experience songwriting can be.”

The band are also currently set to take off on a UK and Ireland tour in March 2021. The band will be kicking off the tour in Mike The Pies in Kerry on the 18th of March before heading to Limerick, Galway, Belfast, Dublin, Glasgow, London and Manchester before ending the tour in Record Junkie in Sheffield on the 3rd of April.
