(Tracks)
‘Shovelling’ is a song that I hope feels a bit like taking a shower. With the hope that as soon as it’s over, you feel a bit clearer in the mind and clean again. I brought the song to Toe Rag (the studio where we recorded most of the new E.P) and played it for the Ark for the first time. We tried a few different tempos and by the end of the afternoon, found the pace we felt best with and laid it down. Hope you enjoy it! Consider it a shower on the go!
