The Traps: Your Headland

• 20th Aug 2012

Your Headland is The Traps opening salvo to the world with its swooning harmonies, seductive melodies and laid back California surf grooves. Evocative of a David Lynch esq soundscape with its ‘other worldliness’ and cinematic feel the track fulfils that rather perfect, blissful, hazy summer day.

Based on the capture story of Homer’s Odyssey by Calypso and a longing for the reassurance of familiarity the track demonstrates the band’s love for hooks, rhythm and compelling lyrical narrative. Recorded with producer Rob Jones (aka The Voluntary Butler Scheme) during their last recording session for their debut album ‘Calypso’ earlier this year. It showcases the best example of band and producer collaboration on the record which will be released later this year.

Hailing from Birmingham the band are Jamie Berry (Vocals/Guitar), Nick Berry (Bass/Vocals), James Minhas (Guitar) and Daniel Webb (Drums). The track is available through their label Speech Fewapy as a free download via their website, link now.
