Paper Kites Fly Away

Hooray! The wait for the sophomore release from the Paper Kites is over! Twelvefour will be released on August 28, and along with the announcement the band released a pretty schwick trailer for the album which you can check out below.
“The album is a concept record, based around a theory that an artist’s creative peak is between the hours of midnight and 4am,” explains front man Sam Bentley. 
“That idea turned into the heart of the project, so every night I’d sit down when the clock ticked over to midnight and just start writing. I got to the end and thought, I’m never doing that again,” Sam laughs. It was wild to write until you are so tired that nothing sounded too over-worked – songs didn’t feel restricted by a commonly analytical brain. This record is the sound of five people trying to make something they’re proud of… And we really are.” 
Twelvefour can be preordered now, and you get a bonus single ‘Electric Indigo’.
