Reception

The 405 issued a positive review of the band's second EP, declaring "Hands is an EP which demonstrates musicianship at its best...a wonderful mixture of influences, added to its melodies and textures, all add together to create a true good feeling within your heart. Fans of Ben Folds and Nils Lofgren especially should like and admire this record but it has the accessibility for just about anyone to jump in and enjoy – excuse the pun - over and over again." Following the release of the EP, the band toured throughout the UK, including a stop in England to play the End of the Road Festival, where they shared a stage with Joanna Newsom, Lykke Li, Best Coast and Beirut.
