Their Hearts Were Full of Spring

about

Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring are travellers and troubadours, waifs and wanderers who have had the good fortune of stumbling across each other one night at a ramshackle gin palace in south east London. United in apathy, they write wide-eyed indiepop songs that are tinged with a sense of melancholic wonder at a world that can hold such beauty and such despair all at once. Their first single, A Question of Trust, was self-released last year, to critical acclaim in the indie press. It was given national radio play by Steve Lamacq, Huw Stephens and on Tom Robinson’s “Introducing…” show for the BBC. “Uplifting, beautiful pop for the disillusioned and faint hearted. It's hard to really say any more than that. THWFOS are a great big, crazy happy band and A Question of Trust is a great example of their craft. Renowned for unpredictable live shows, eclectic tastes and an advanced opposition to the mainstream culture of mediocrity, this band demands to be looked out for and listened to. So best you do!” -Stay In The Box Their live shows are colourful and joyous, and Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring encourage audience participation. There are listen-and-repeat percussion classes, the baking of cakes and the breaking of hearts, and some fairly shambolic flower arranging. Think of a fancy dress food-fight at an afternoon funeral and you’d be at the right table. “Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring emanate romance like a summer rose, their shaven-haired, white-jacketed, Morrisey-es
