1. On a trip from London, we were talking about protests in and around England and the U.S. and how the common working man seems to be really struggling. That led us to a montage concept for ‘I Could Be A King,’ wanting to magnify how a simple idea can generate a massive change and how one steadfast person can inspire the world. An every day person can be heroic. Enjoy!

  3. Happy New Year!

    Hope everyone has had a great holiday! We’re really excited about 2012. So many things to look forward to - our album is released in Feb (March in UK), we’re heading back to Memphis (where it all began for us) to headline the Folk Alliance Conference, then starting our first US tour!

    Hope to see you at one of the shows! Will be announcing US dates shortly but there are still a few UK gigs first (see dates below) - Including our HMV next big thing show at the amazing HMV ritz in Manchester!
