Who

Leavins' sonorous, emotive vocals commands stages, supported by the band's tight musicianship and alt-rock-infused arrangements.
What
The Future Is Our Way Out offers up a timeless sound whilst managing to embrace and evolve modern indie rock. Drawing from pop culture, classic movies and cinema, French fashion and movies (they take their name from French pin-up Brigitte Bardot who Leavins wrote to in his teens), this anticipated debut shares real personality and inspiration. Allow yourself to get swept away in this album's tracks, carried by its melancholic hues as well as its jiving numbers.
