Crafting potent tunes that drip with nostalgia, their mellifluous musings are raw and enveloping, even in their easiness. Sinuous and tactile, Clear The Air ambles along with an enchanting darkness. Wasted is a more stripped back tune, fully immersed in the dark-country vibe, making moroseness sound compelling.

The double A-Side was recorded early this year in the band’s own studio in Haringey, North London. They favour a quick, predominantly live way of recording. ‘For us this is the best way to do it. We work fast, we try to retain the human element in our recordings wherever possible.’ Lewisburg are currently putting the finishing touches to a pending EP which will be released in the autumn.

Oops.

So gonna start off by saying, this song is absolutely brilliant. As is the video, this whole collection of what looks like home videos, featuring guitars, sunshine, the beach, lovely things like that.
Then you’ve got this cute, ‘homey’, happy-go-lucky vibe to it. With all the whistling and reminders of the best things at home. The song describes that, yeah, home is great, and that when we get home, we love it and we’re happy so this relationship between the boy and girl, means that whenever they’re around each other, they’re happy and safe, like we are ourselves, at home.
I feel like this is a really summery song, and its not just the fact I’ve been playing this full volume in my garden… and annoying the neighbours.
SO GO AND LISTEN TO IT IF YOU’RE COOL OK. Joke, you’re on It’s All Happening, you’re already cool.
