“The quality of our song, ‘It’s History’, recorded at these studios is like nothing else.  

“It cost a lot to record and stay in the same accommodation on site used by Oasis etc, but it was so worth it especially as a fan". 

The band said how the overall experience was ‘fantastic’ and ‘more than we imagined.’  

They described Rockfield Studios as being like a museum and to record there was ‘the icing on the cake.’
