Our second EP featuring UK poet Mr Gee Written In the Sky is ‘protest music with a street party aesthetic’
“Written In the Sky manages to condense so much into just four tracks. It serves as a soothing balm for the soul whilst also encouraging people to get educated and get active. Protest music made with a street-party aesthetic. The sound of multiculturalism and the positives that that brings to the world. Another great release by a band quickly establishing themselves as one of our most important voices.”
— Simon Tucker, Louder Than War
