Karl Sanden All of these tracks are so well written, and groove beautifully. I had the privilege of playing a few gigs with these guys back in 2014, and although my accordion never made it to the final cut, the recordings turned out amazing. Favorite track: Home Again.

Catherine MacKinnon It's hard to pick a favourite track - such a strong EP. But #2 and 4 are especially awesome.

Flightless 06:13
you’re standing in the light but all you see is darkness you’re falling back in doubt what you perceived is flightless so why are you holding on? when your body is lifting away you’re falling through open arms sifting through all that remains so get out of the shadow that is dragging you down though you could not see past the haze that’s been hanging around it’s so clear the higher you get with no fears there are no regrets courage is at hand to give this heart a chance to grasp what it might not understand so wash away the scars they’re pulling you apart

Smoking Gun 03:48
i’m biting the bullet on this one i can feel it slipping through my teeth a brand new chapter has begun who knows what lies beneath? now I’ve come to a crossroads where do I turn? i don’t know but I’ve got some bridges to burn now I’ve let go of everything what did I learn? you can’t keep a hold on what you did not earn exchanging my ticket at the station this train only goes one way ready for this unknown destination so let’s get moving without delay this impulse is here to stay when it comes to the art of love and war you really did settle the score sad but true what’s done is done no remorse from behind your smoking gun
4.
Home Again 04:15
home again i’m on the road to seeing all my friends but they’re all gone and now I can’t pretend that I’m not alone there we were happier then all the bees and birds flying over every cloud that blurred the sun from our view home again you’re in the air and I’m stuck here waiting it’s been so long since I’ve had a friend to miss before they’re away here we are dancing moving through the corridor in a palace far from where we were before we knew the world would end and I can’t pretend that I’m not alone tonight were you ever here? i can’t even tell if I’m dreaming i don’t remember anything at all home again we’re back and forth between an answer it’s not the same when you’re dancing all alone is there a place that I belong? where will it appear?
5.
Molasses 04:00
i made a grave mistake i did not listen to my heart my chest begins to ache as i fall apart you've got to slow down and now my eyes are open to what i knew but could not see and now my spirit is broken by what is and what should be but how can you get a life back when it’s been ripped out of your hands i was lost in the dark in the dark for too long now it’s time to take a stand like molasses in january that’s what my momma said like molasses in january don’t you worry your pretty little head
