The Way We Came Back is notable for being written by Poppy Hankin when she was just sixteen years old, yet had never been recorded until after the release of the North London group's debut album Earl Grey.
"It's cute, I guess," says Sophie Moss. "You kinda wanna skip to it, you know? Makes you think about arguments but it doesn't make you hate them that much. It's an early, early - we're talking pre-Earl Grey here - banger that we wanted to oil up. A plump cow that needed to be milked. It was one of the first songs Poppy wrote when she was 16 which we all found pretty impressive. Sly arrangement, good vibes here."
The trio comprising Sophie Moss (bass) Poppy Hankin (guitar/vocals), Iris McConnell (drums), released debut album Earl Grey through Moshi Moshi last summer to unanimous acclaim: four stars in The Guardian, Q Magazine and The Evening Standard; Album of the Week on The Line Of Best Fit, Loud and Quiet and Under The Radar; an Album of the Day on BBC Radio 6 Music and an It's Album Time feature on Huw Stephens' BBC Radio 1 show.
