Eric Colville and Ann Holbrook write and perform the way they live, unfiltered, a little defiant, and allergic to anything that smells like pretense. The name came out of a half-joking, half-serious conversation about how nothing in music is really life or death, but at the same time, every word you sing had better matter like it is. That tension between taking the

Ed Boxall
I learnt guitar when I was 15 because I wanted to learn the mystic, magical art of songwriting and I have been writing songs ever since. I hope my music is all about pretty melodies and emotional warmth- just like my hero Paul McCartney! I’m inspired by a lot of other music- from the wild and wonky folk of The Incredible String Band to the electronica of Boards of Canada.
