With echoes of Tom Petty and Creedence Clearwater Revival, the band manages to craft a sound that’s both nostalgically timeless and refreshingly modern. This single introduces listeners to a band that isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of the alt-country genre, infusing Heartland American rock with a hometown British twist.
From the very first note, "No Time To Talk" bursts to life with an upbeat and vibrant intro that immediately grabs your attention.

Lyrically, "No Time To Talk" captures the essence of its title—a reflection on the pace of life and the need to prioritize what truly matters.
