Night Flight

New kids on the block Night Flight previously told NME they believe they can become “one of our generation’s great bands”.

A somewhat-conceited sentiment to some, but one that actually just deserves a nod of the head and a “fair enough”, as this London indie folk quartet have got something going on.

There’s a refreshing confidence in these guys – and rightly so.

After releasing a couple of EPs that went down a storm with their growing fan base, they have now reached their debut album.

From the opening bars of their self-titled album’s first track Departure – a simple guitar riff and Holmes’ exquisite vocal – through bigger, euphoric tracks like God Knows and Medicine, and the poetic Death Rattle, the record is a joy.
