Musical siblings have a magical quality– the brothers, who started learning guitar at seven and nine, formed Champs in 2012.
Their fourth album Ride The Morning Glass is the record they always wanted to make: a unique combination of cool minimalism and evocative Americana, studded with radio-friendly songs. Island life, and a childhood steeped in music of Laurel Canyon, formed a sensibility in the brothers that makes them, in sound and aesthetic, more like an American band: “We’ve never really considered ourselves a ‘British band’,” says David. “Our music has always felt transatlantic. It’s driving music, big scenery...”

On Ride The Morning Glass they achieved a level of creative involvement they’ve always dreamed of. With time, space, and as many vintage analogue synths as they could get their hands on, they were able finally to produce the sound they heard in their heads– a sound that unites past and present, and conjures up a thousand dreamlike associations.
