Carousels

Longtime friends Nick Benton and Lucy Wilson create music under the name Carousels.
I discovered this great Guildford based duo a few weeks ago while browsing the website Abeano. Their track ‘Here To Me’ has been fitting my recent mood. Watch the self-made video for ‘Carousel’ below and listen to another track ‘Sleep’ on their soundcloud. They will be making their first live show for Binnacle festival in October so if you like what you hear, I urge you all to buy tickets!
I cannot wait to listen to their debut album.
Highly recommended.
