Jan 14, 2019While some of these songs date back to their former guise as Thrifty Kids, the album itself bristles with zest and ingenuity. Sounding fresh and exciting whilst fully highlighting not only Cogan and Frankland's insatiable knack for crafting timeless melodies, but also the taut rhythm section of bass player Stephen Pitman and drummer Cian O'Neill underpinning their every move.
