Initially cut as a 'Demo' over 3 days in 2014, officially released in 2015, discontinued in 2019 and, still holding dear, being the first and only studio collaboration from the founding five, re-released in 2023, infinitely ...
Having served its purpose with distinctions and more, e.g., title track 'Push' ... One of The Best Songs from an Independent Irish Artist : Hard Rock Cafe (2016) + featured on 'Garage Records' Debut Compilation Album, Titled : Garageland Vol. 1 (2017) ... it later fell foul to a publishing mishap and with our focus elsewhere, 'twas eventually archived, shelved and forgotten.
Upon reviewing material and ideas for our long-awaited debut album, we were genuinely toppled when the EP resurfaced. Playing back it sounded retro and raw, yet fresh, with a wealth of wonders and nuances long since surrendered.
Excitement got that better of us there and then, rightly so, and a decision was made instantly to, with the exception of a cover change, re-release, as is and why not?
Regardless of if, when and where future recordings of these songs surface, they were courted, conceived and born here - and at a minimum, worthy of our recognition and catalogue.
