Excuses For KIngs

Debut album

The Catch debut their own brand of Prog Neue, paying homage to the sound of the neo-progressive bands of the 80s and aspiring to the intensity of classic 1970s Prog.

Excuses For Kings muses on the contemporary, secular, faith-stories we all tell ourselves, as Kings in our own time, watching the sun set on our fragile empires.

Packed with catchy hooks and melodic ambition, the neo-classical pomp is well tempered by lyrics of real existential punch and romantic swagger.

Bio

The Catch is primarily a writing and recording project, with the duo bringing in friends and talent on an ad-hoc basis.
