The release date for our first single from the forthcoming album is looming large, and in anticipation of its arrival we’re pleased to unveil the artwork for the vinyl sleeve.
The sleeve has been created by talented designer, i think it’s nice, who also built this site for us. We’ll be doing a little interview / feature on him at some point in the future so watch out for that.

As we’ve mentioned previously, the vinyl will be ‘Close’ b/w ‘Above Words’, with ‘If I Could Tell You’ as a digital exclusive. You can hear clips of all three tracks below.
Just so you know, we’re working closely with our distributor to try and ensure that the vinyl and MP3s hit the stores on exactly the same day.
