Shelter Love is a taunting, creeping number highlighted with Dianne Swann’s haunting and uplifting vocals in combo with long-time partner Brett Adams magic guitar playing. Their combined songcraft is a great tease as to what else will come on their much anticipated next album, Losing Heroes.
Written across the summer of 2016, and recorded throughout the winter months with Ben Edwards at Sitting Room Studios in Lyttelton, Losing Heroes will be independently released on July 7th with LP and CD distribution via Rhythmethod, and available via the digital services.
