Details:
Halcyon Days are a British ambient pop group based in London and Reading.

Clare - Vocals & Keyboards
Carl - Guitars
Rod - Guitars & Programming

The three met in London and are now writing and producing music together that will fascinate, inspire and surprise you.

Their music has been likened to Bjork, The Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil and The Sundays. They have blended New Wave sensibilities with ambient sounds to create a unique style of indie dream pop.

This EP was recorded in five days at a studio in rural Oxfordshire and engineered by Chris Hufford (producer of Slowdive and Radiohead). Prior to recording, the tracks were honed on the road during a tour which culminated in a live show with Tori Amos.

It was feared that this, the first release on their own Real Gulf label, might never see the light of day as the band members pursued numerous other projects including bringing up 5 children and starting 2 successful businesses!

So, at last, it's time to chill out and sing along to the colourful sound of a Jasmine Sunset!
