Growing from the band’s 2013 EP Like A Thief, Art Of Sleeping’s debut full length relies more on a guitar driven, percussive rock sound, combined with tracks that are delicately layered in synth and keys. All of that combined with Caleb Hodges’ gorgeous vocals and we have got a winner.

It is a raw, honest look at the downside of being in love, weaving through tales of desperation and heartache. One of the album’s most poignant moments is the simple, stripped back Burning Bright, breaking up all the noise. Album highlight has to be ‘Crazy’ with its groovy melodies and battling guitars and percussion and silky smooth vocals. Its so great to see how far Art Of Sleeping have come over the last few years.

Art Of Sleeping is a rock band from Brisbane, QLD, Australia.
The members are: Caleb Hodges: Vocals & Guitars; Jean-Paul Malengret: Drums; Jarryd Shuker: Keyboards; Patrick Silver: Guitars; Francois Malengret: Bass.
When asked to describe their sound, the boys cited The Temper Trap, Coldplay, Phoenix and listed their influences as Copeland, Foals and Jeff Buckley.

Melding strong instrumental hooks, ambient rhythmic textures and the prominent vocal strength of front man Caleb Hodges, Art of Sleeping’s live reputation in their hometown goes before them, resulting in an admirable and devoted following of fans via online networks. Both ‘Empty Hands’ and ‘Above the Water’ sees current, go-to producer, Yanto Browning (The Medics, Tara Simmons, The Jungle Giants, The Belligerents) take the helm as a first taste of their EP release planned for release before the end of the year
