REVIEWS

‘Skipping Girl Vinegar delivers a world-class indie anthem that hints at what’s to come from the bands next release. The single is complemented beautifully by an inspiring, feel-good aerial film clip that features Audrey the Skipping Girl and tracks the journey of a hand-crafted paper crane from a small, Victorian coastal village to the rooftop of the band’s namesake...’ Rip It Up- Adelaide
