“‘Same Blood’ captures the intricacies and changes of pace within the closest of long-term friendships, and our experience with specifically how powerful female friendship can be, when growing up together. All of the songs stem from moments or concepts which can make you feel vulnerable and overwhelmed – friendship, new love, driving lessons [!!], death – but also powerful and certain. As we’ve grown up, in some ways we’ve become more certain of who we are individually, and each let go of things or people along the way, when necessary, but we’ve been a constant for each other and it’s special”. — Amy Illingworth (Sunflower Thieves).
