In Their Words: “‘Miles and Miles’ is about driving across the country, trying to get from place to place — free and easy but with real energy and motion. It was inspired by the landscapes of Easy Rider and Vanishing Point and this fantasy of racing down the highway. It’s fuel for the listeners’ imagination — whatever that may be. For the music video we wanted to create that feeling, and we were inspired by clips of the Stones and the Beatles on roadsides in the ’60s. It’s sun-soaked and fast-paced, and we wanted it to feel like a dream.
“Joining ATO Records is an insane feeling. So many of our favourite bands are with the label, and to now sit alongside them is a huge honour. We are coming to the states in the autumn (or should we say FALL), playing in New York and LA’s legendary Troubadour which is going to feel surreal. In a weird way ‘Miles and Miles’ being about this fantasy of driving across America is now coming full circle and going to become a reality. We can’t wait to get across the pond.” — Georgie Fuller, The Heavy Heavy
