Headshrinkers

West Midlands 4-piece Headshrinkers share video for new track The Sea Has No Friends taken from newly released debut EP Doorway Conversations.

Talking about the story behind the track, vocalist and songwriter Garran Hickman explains: “It was quite the reflective day when I wrote that piece. Words and melody were both written in half an hour. It’s just two entwined memories really: one is of my older relatives sharing stories of their loved ones in the war, and secondly the opening line, ‘the sea has no friends’, are words my dad used to describe the sea.”

Formed in 2019 and comprised of Garran Hickman (vocals), James Knott (guitar), Xavier Al-Naqib (bass) and Scarlett Churchill (drums, backing vocals), the Black Country-based foursome have released a steady stream of singles and now unleash debut EP Doorway Conversations, Produced and mixed by Gavin Monoghan at Magic Garden Studios in Wolverhampton and engineered by Liam Radburn.
