The rock band formed seven years ago and have supported artists such as Eric Clapton and Status Quo. Deeply touched by the Manchester terror attack earlier this year, they decided to step in and do their bit as well.

‘Even Jesus Wept’ (Song For Saffie) has been produced by Chris Thomas, who is best known for his work with Pink Floyd, The Beatles, and Elton John. The soulful ballad features powerful guitar and touching lyrics, sung by Lucy Smith, in her recording debut. The track is a departure from the band’s usual music, but is nonetheless one which speaks to everyone and is a reminder of the importance of coming together in times of tragedy.
