The new album, produced by Ian Grimble (Mumford & Sons, Manic Street Preachers) follows the critical acclaim of his previous two EPs and a word of mouth buzz. The first single 'Box of Stones' taken from the album has seen continued support with Radio 1 B-list, Xfm Daytime playlist and B-List at MTV Rocks. It was again named Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record In The World with a Maida Vale performance with Fleet Foxes, and ROTW by Greg James and Xfm’s Steve Harris.
