On their thoughtful and immersive new EP Outliers, innovative London band Sylvan Weekends stand out as a rebellious alternative folk outfit who have carved out their own sound and style, exploring their psyche in rousing and distinctive style throughout.

The focus track from the EP and their release’s final climatic moment is the thoughtful and rousing ‘185’, a track that feels like an all encompassing exploration of life and some of the themes that are touched upon through the release. There is a intricate and delicate feel to the track, as it builds and naturally flows, revealing layer after layer of immersive indie folk sounds and charm. The track explores the fine line between innocence and hedonism, and how finding a healthy medium can often be the key to making it work, and bring out the best aspects in both. The track puts a really satisfying full stop to a stellar EP, and continues to highlight the unique and charismatic appeal of a trio doing things their own way.
