Just thinking about how long they&#8217;ve been a band is really inspiring and all that hard work paid off with all the amazing reviews of the EP.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Look out for the video to their next single &#8216;Saturday In The City&#8217; and until then, find out more about them on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/mammothlife\" target=\"_blank\">Youtube<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mammothlife\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mammothlife\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/mammothlife\" target=\"_blank\">Soundcloud<\/a>.
