1.	Five Miles Of Line 02:35	lyrics	buy track
Five miles of line in the rain or sunshine Five miles of line, Burry Port to Ferryside Down below some porpoise are putting on a show I don’t know their purpose but I don’t need to know A tattered looking dragon is flapping in the breeze In the cabin hoarse-voiced ladies are singing sea shanties Here’s to anyone who doesn’t know where they belong Home is somewhere between Pembroke Dock and Paddington Down below some porpoise are putting on a show I don’t know their purpose but I don’t need to know
2.	See You Around 02:03	lyrics	buy track
William Blake and João Gilberto Alvy Singer and old Umberto Pop stars’ kids and public schoolboys A drowning sailor and a porpoise These are things we found On our year underground See you around A black cat and a perilous rescue Vic Godard and old Montesquieu A Billy Wilder film and a Dickens novel Moving to Wales and buying a hovel A stranded seagull and a mermaid Old Etonians on parade A missing logo and a tattoo And enough animals for a small zoo

While we are still waiting for the incredible “Architecture Of The Ages”, the collaboration THE HEPBURNS and Estella Rosa (NAH) worked on during confinement, and which will be their full-length debut on Elefant Records, we have a new advance for you in the form of a Digital Single. “Five Miles Of Line” is an example of their trademark excellent work: sunny melodies, delicious harmonies, echoes of sixties and lounge music, and the outpouring of C86 flooding the room. The trumpet and the parapapas. Pop in its purest, most precious state. And for the occasion, a previously unreleased track for the B-side. “See You Around” is a farewell to confinement, all the characters that accompany Matt Jones, Mike Thomas and Les Mun in that period. A song that came about the days before streets were opened again, and that revelry seeps into all of this song’s marvelous choruses that reminds us of vocal groups from the sixties like THE FREE DESIGN and THE 5TH DIMENSION.

And to go with the launch, a delicious video filmed by James Owen and directed by Daniel Cuenca following trains, tracing the coast, leaving Cardiff, reaching the sea. At the same time, we can see Matt, Mike and Les playing, connecting with Estella in the choruses. Two new objects of tremendously detailed work that leave us craving that imminent album more than before.
