They spent time pursuing their own projects for a while: Ross had been producing various artists, writing for film and TV and arranging strings for a Bloody Beetroots album, while Lawrence was on the road as a guest vocalist with Bombay Bicycle Club. Ross eventually called Lawrence out of the blue - “I wanted to reimagine and rebuild.” Combining Ross’s long-standing nickname and Lawrence’s fantasy of a concept band whose every member would be called David, initial tracks emerged during a turbo-charged honeymoon period. After Triptych and ‘X’, single ‘Pains 4 U feat. Rome Fortune’ sees the duo entering bold new territory, in preparation for their forthcoming debut album, due 2016.
