“A new studio album was something we had talked about doing over the years but the timing and problems of us all living in different countries, meant it never happened,” said songwriter Craig Walker.

“When everything closed in March 2020, suddenly those hurdles of geography and time no longer mattered. It was a window of opportunity that was too good to pass up. I’d been putting songs to one side over the years, as they were obviously Power of Dreams songs,”

Described by Hot Press as fusing “vintage indie-rock with a new, modern edge”, Ausländer was recorded between Berlin, Bath, London and Arizona and mixed by Ali Staton.
