The Drink - Capital (2015)

Mixed and mastered by Tobias Warwick Jones, Capital exhibits the band's appreciation of artists from The Modern Lovers to Rory Gallagher. The result is a record that transcends its predecessor, bolstered by playful danceability. Take the disco-infused 'You Won't Come Back At All', born from a night out dancing in Whitechapel, whilst lead track 'The Coming Rain' is the result of years spent listening to Kenyan Ayub Ogada. Elsewhere the nervy blues guitar sound of 'Hair Trigger' and 'Like A River' are driven by what Dearbhla calls a 'got-to-catch-my-train feel'. "We only found the right guitar sound about an hour before I had to leave for my train and I wanted to record as many tracks as possible with that sound. It was a bit down to the wire but it's given the record an energy we wouldn't have otherwise had" she says.
