Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Time makes the thought of the empty nest syndrome easier to bear, it doesn’t make it any less painful, but like all moments of sadness, of loneliness and heartbreak, Time is, as they say, the great healer. It is the ritual that we perhaps all go through at some point if we are fortunate to have the Serious Child, the inquisitive, the brave, the loved, the demanding, the passionate of every creed, colour and belief in our hearts, the Empty Nest is not the end of all things, it is the beginning, and for the talent within Serious Child, Alan Young, Carla March and Steve Welch, it is a launch, an coolly framed active introduction, that sits wonderfully in the heart of the listener.
