New Single – Bruise You Left

We are so happy to announce our new single, “Bruise You Left” will be released on 4th June 2021. Bruise you left is the second single from our upcoming five-track EP ‘No Hope Without Love’. You can pre-save the song on all digital platforms by clicking HERE.

You can also buy a signed limited edition (Limited to 50) CD copy of the EP.

The song was written and recorded completely independently by Chris and Chantelle during lockdown at their own recording studio. The Drums however, were tracked by Chris Brush in Nashville, TN. The track was Mastered by Pete Maher (U2, Rolling Stones, The Killers, Snow Patrol and many more). 

Written by the duo the song started out as a title, melodic idea and a drum machine pattern. Since the beginning, the duo have kept with a routine of keeping a weekly allocated “writing session”. This is where the duo get together to focus solely on writing. They will swap ideas, show each other what they have been working on or start a brand new song together. This song was written over the course of two weekly writing sessions. 

The premise behind the song is the hurt caused by a long-term relationship coming to an end. Despite promising never to hurt each other, in the end, they do. Those wounds take a while to heal, some never do. So, whilst they may be in a better place apart the wounds/bruises of the relationship will stay with them forever.

In something that has become something of a trademark, the duo enjoy putting darker lyrics with upbeat music. 

Throughout the making of this song the duo experimented with sound and sonic textures. One such example of this is the percussion elements. Pinned against the live drum kit is a series of drum loops that were made by chopping up percussion sounds, processing and reversing the sound to create a interesting texture. Something the duo really enjoyed doing. Treating the recording studio like another musical instrument. Something they look forward to exploring more in the future.

Better Than This is an uplifting story which deals with the theme that no matter how hard things seem, they can always get better. It follows the two central characters. One, is a singer songwriter who is struggling hard playing in all the dive bars She can to make a go at being a successful musician. But no matter how hard they try they just can’t seem to make any progress. The second character a successful business Man who ends up loosing everything because they squandered all their money playing a game of keeping-up-with-the-Jones’. So they are forced to get a new job to rebuild everything. As the two characters continue on with their journeys they cross paths in the middle and realise that things will get better and they just have to keep working on their dreams. 


This song recalls heavily on the duos love of storytelling and the musician character is semi-autobiographical, covering the struggles of being an independent musician in today’s world. Especially with the current climate where musicians main revenue stream is being pulled away from them due to the worldwide pandemic. But within that darkness we must have faith in our dreams and push through, knowing that things will indeed get better. A universal message for everyone.
