The band has recently released their third single from their forthcoming debut album. “Tessellate” is a track that exudes grit and power – it’s a real adrenaline hit.

Lyrically, the song touches upon a personal memory for singer Jarred Young, as he recounts a best mate who battled with addiction and mental health problems as a teenager. “I spent a lot of time visiting him in hospitals and rehab and trying my best to give him support. There are an array of complex emotions and memories attached to that time that flick between worry, love, pity and despair,” he recalls.

The group recorded the track at Rockinghorse Studios in Byron Bay, with Steven Schram (San Sisco, Paul Kelly, Mojo Juju, Wharves) on production duties.
