The heart of this EP is about the need for community, connection and relationships of all forms. The band’s founder, Onome Edgeworth, shared their intention in “Being a voice of hope, comfort in a time where the world isn’t always promoting positive energy, unity and togetherness”.
Speaking further on the humanising motivations behind the EP which was largely borne from its opening track ‘Higher’, the band’s Sheila Maurice-Grey said: “That song is a mantra. With the repeated lyrics, we were setting the intention and the tone of what we wanted to do with the EP which is to be a balm for people. Being a voice of hope, comfort in a time where the world isn’t always promoting positive energy, unity and togetherness”
