We are delighted to announce the release of our third album.


‘The Effervescent Travellers’ will be released digitally on all download/streaming platforms on 14th August.


The track list is as follows

1.) High Rise

2.) Extreme Push Cycle Race

3.) Sur La Dordogne

4.) The Almighty Faff

5.) Mont Blanc

6.) Fred’s Motorhome Extravaganza

7.) Kinky Joe’s Steamboat trip down the River Taff

As can be suggested from the titles, the theme of the album is all about travel in the most vibrant and enthusiastic sense of the word, either inspired from experiences we’ve had or silly scenarios we came up with in our heads!


We look forward to sharing the full album with you.
Additionally, we have a live set all ready to go as soon as shows are allowed to start happening again. Once we are on the road we will also be announcing the release of the physical version of the album.


In the meantime, you can expect to see livestream performances of the new songs after they are released.

Peace!

Below is a video of the three of us playing through the new track in different locations.

Here is a little information from Ryan about the song

‘High Rise came from a guitar riff I had when I was something like 14 years old. It’s taken about 13 years for me to do something with it and being surrounded by massive skyscrapers in Dubai gave me the inspiration for the title and to finish writing the song. In essence, I wanted the technical scope of what we are doing musically to be reminiscent of some of the amazing post-modern architecture that is appearing in cities, it was great fun putting this together and I cannot wait to do it live when we are able to play live again!’

Here are the credits for ‘High Rise’

Ryan Elliott – Guitars, Moog

Jonathan Griffiths – Drums

Mathew Griffiths – Bass Guitar

Recording and Mixing Engineer – Andrew Bishop

Mastering Engineer – Steffan Pringle

Artwork – Dale Johnson

We look forward to sharing the rest of the album with you.

As a result of the pandemic, all of our plans to go out and play live went down the drain.

Subsequently we decided to grab any opportunity we could to get all three of us in a room and play some tunes live! Here is a live performance of ‘Chocolate Teapot’ taken from our second album ‘Quirky Musings’ (2017)

Ryan Elliott – Guitar

Matthew Griffiths – Bass Guitar

Jonathan Griffiths – Drums

Hannah Lamb – Cameras

Andrew Bishop – Engineering, Mixing and Editing

The entire process of recording our new album was a lot of fun, it was also hard work and the hours we put in did lead us to becoming slightly delirious at times as well! Here is a video that shows us recording ‘Extreme Push Cycle Race’ along with the mistakes and moments where we went a bit mad!
