A relatively new face in the Windmill Scene. While retaining the signature rough texture of the scene, the overall vibe is noticeably fresher and more restrained. The band describes itself as “British pastoral style,” with intricate instrumental arrangements and tight yet elastic drumming. The composition leans distinctly toward power pop, incorporating a wealth of bright, optimistic pop elements, showcasing emotional tension and melodic tendencies reminiscent of Twin Fantasy. The female vocalist’s voice carries a natural and detached quality akin to Adrianne Lenker, further enhancing the intimate atmosphere of the work. The cover design also demonstrates a high level of polish, complementing the musical style well. Currently, only two EPs have been released, and the band is still in the stage of stylistic development, making their upcoming debut full-length LP worth keeping an eye on.

Windmill Scene中较新的面孔。虽然仍保留该场景一贯的粗粝质感,但整体气质明显更加清新克制。乐队自称“英伦田园风”,器乐编排精细,鼓点紧凑而不失弹性;作曲上明显向power pop倾斜,融入大量明亮、乐观的流行元素,呈现出接近 Twin Fantasy 的情绪张力与旋律取向。女主唱的声线带有类似Adrianne Lenker的自然与疏离感,进一步强化了作品的亲密氛围。封面设计亦具有较高完成度,与音乐气质形成良好呼应。目前仅发行两张EP,仍处于风格建构阶段,后续首张正式LP值得持续关注。
