Comparisons to Circa Waves followed soon after – not just because they’re both from Liverpool – but there were hints in that EP, especially on ‘The Way Of Mary’, which suggested a similar elevation to huge venues was certainly on the cards.“New song ‘Felicity’ confirms that the trajectory is very much on – but showcases a darker, moodier side to the group.
