The Candle Thieves
The Sunshine Song

Alcopop

WE SAY

The Candle Thieves are duo Scott McEwan and Glockenshiels, who release their debut ‘The Sunshine EP’ through Alcopop next month. The Sunshine Song, as Dave Simpson wrote in The Guardian, serves as 'a terrific manifesto' for their charming line in quirky pop songs. An album is planned for later in the year after their 'Live In Your Garden' tour. Watch the video here. JF
