What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why? 
Recording our upcoming second album at Metropolis Studios was quite special.

And what’s the moment you want to forget? 
It's been such a good year for us that I honestly can't think of one. Not getting to play Latitude alongside some of our favourite artists was a bit of a bummer.

If you could choose one of your songs as an advert for your music, what would it be and why? 
Seeing as album two isn't ready to hear yet I reckon ‘Someday, Baby’ from our self-titled debut gives a good idea of the direction we're heading.
