Reviews
Anyway I Can
“At a time when we are all understandably swimming against global anxiety, it’s so great that these two wildly optimistic tune smiths are keeping our peckers up for us. An ear worm melody that defies is it or is it not coolness by just being so openly fresh faced and catchy.” Tim Bricheno (All About Eve)
Passage Of Time (EP)
“An emotional roller-coaster in 5 songs, an outstanding EP from such a talented duo of singer-songwriters.” Welsh Connections
“Well…I listened to the new EP from @tukayandryan today and it is absolutely terrific. Beautiful and with something to say.” Tim Wheeler, BBC Northampton
