Built on friendship, creative freedom and passion, the EP is led by poignant lyrical explorations of frustrations surrounding aspects of society, history, and politics, presented with equal amounts of relatability and introspection.

Fusing elements of electronic, experimental, and indie sounds for an impactful yet atmospheric sonic world, the innovative pair stand out as an act to watch this year. 

“KIN TALA, a musical duo from Blackpool, England, has unveiled their debut EP, Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost. This seven-track collection is a fusion of indie-rock, electronic, and ambient sounds, showcasing the band’s evolution and creative depth... Each piece demonstrates KIN TALA’s commitment to crafting unique soundscapes, reflecting their diverse influences and desire to experiment beyond the typical indie genre.”

“NATWWAL is more than just a few notes on a page – it’s the soundtrack to our bromance, a fusion of our passions, and KIN TALA’s debut roar… We’re taken on a journey that proudly celebrates the local spirit, while also exploring the quieter stories of strength and heritage that weave the community together. Chasing the thrill of creative liberation, we unshackled ourselves from the norm, embracing an eclectic mix of influences that fusioned into a record that boldly rewrites the rulebook. Lyrically, I delve into societal frustrations, blending boldness with worldly influences to provoke thought and introspection.”

The highlight of the EP is arguably the closing track, “Ocean Blues.” This song distils the essence of KIN TALA, serving as an ode to honest communities, folk, family, and friends. It praises, ponders, and laments, capturing the duality of celebration and introspection that defines their music. “Ocean Blues” is a perfect blend of electronic, experimental and indie atmospheres, showcasing the duo’s ability to create music that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
