EP1

Led by Mickey Smith - a long-time collaborator of Ben Howard - the six-piece band summons ethereal webs of sound from the depths of the earth. Shimmering waves of guitar and voice melt together and fizzle into the atmosphere like sparks - it's got gravitas behind each beat and massive post-rock vibes that build towards leviathan climaxes or leave you gasping for a sweet release.

Smith and Nat Wason produce the six-track EP, which was recorded in Ireland and mixed by Nicolas Vernhes (The War On Drugs, Daughter).

A Blaze Of Feather actually features the same cast of musicians as Ben Howard's band, including former Hiss Golden Messenger percussionist Kyle Keegan and Howard himself. A Blaze Of Feather are also the first signing to the singer/songwriter's new independent label Hell Up Records.
