Last August, Dan and I retreated to a cottage in Doncaster to continue writing our album. On the third night, amidst melodic and lyrical ideas that weren't getting us anywhere, I happened to stumble across a post on Facebook that would change everything. It was by Humans Of New York. For those that don't know, the owner of this Page takes photos of people as they go about their day on the streets of New York - and with it comes a quote; a short snapshot into this person's life. This particular August, HONY were travelling around Pakistan and gathering stories from those affected by the brick kilns. The post that hit me the hardest was of a young man who had gotten into this labour because of his sister's 30,000 rupee medical bill. He took a loan from the brick kiln and agreed to work until it was paid off. His family members did the same. They believed it would take 3 months to pay it off, but when they went to leave, the debt had grown to 90,000 rupees. He said it was like Quicksand. The owners take all the money, as accommodation and food has to be paid for too, and the debt gets higher and higher. The workers don't know their rights, and the brick kiln owners then sell the workers off to each other. His whole family were sold off for 2.2 million rupees.
We were so heartbroken reading these stories. We get so swept up in our lives and forget how lucky we are on a daily basis. We wanted to acknowledge these incredibly brave people and all those who devote their lives to helping them.

UNDERRATED AS FUCK. Seriously, this is amazingly chill and indie and god, I'm obsessed. Voice like goddamn silk. Deserves so much more recognition; sort of gives me a chill version of Fox Stevenson vibes which I absolutely adore. Kudos kudos kudos to you.
A true musician and song-writer. Such a haunting song. The story behind the lyrics gave me goosebumps.
I'm blessed to listen to this... I just had an eargasm!
Chills all over gosh, I was already in love with the song and the music video is so powerful! I can really visualize the hopelessness of the story.
Also this is very random but I just love the last words without music.
Congratz Kate & Dan
