Sister from Northern Flame by Emma Johnson's Gravy Boat
Sister is inspired by Sister Aine Cox MBE, the founder of the local hospice movement in Lancaster. Reading about her work and thinking about the connotations of being a 'sister' lead me to think about all sorts of female relationships, being a daughter, a friend, a partner.
In this track, each of the band represent a different quality or role, with the drums being the cheeky younger sibling (haha - see if you can spot why!).
