QUOTES:
"As a producer with more than 40 years of experience, I can honestly say that it’s rare to come across a band with this kind of authentic love for the big rock songs. Especially in 2020. When it comes to guitar music there are so many hipster, jazz and metal productions out there, so it’s special to find a band with this kind of attitude, energy and natural gift for the big sing-along choruses. I guess we haven’t seen much like it since the ’90s. Doesn’t hurt that they are great guys too.”
Grammy-winning producer Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica, Mew, etc.)

“Love Leash sounds wonderfully British, making the song shine with pop appeal, while staying current and not lost in the past.“
