Hubbard constructs songs like glimmering white birds – emotionally open, light and jubilant. Ryan’s songs are storm crows – heavy, world-weary and wise. Where Ryan loves The Clash and Leonard Cohen, Hubbard loves Bjork and Sinatra. The songs on their debut are arresting. It is a sound that is sophisticated and pretty and smart.
