The twin sisters Catherine and Lizzy Ward Thomas are among the elite of modern country artists – consistently brilliant, innovative and inspired. Dubbed Britain’s first country stars, they skilfully marry country and pop. Ward Thomas didn’t have to come up with a theme for their third album.

Restless Minds, the follow-up to 2016’s chart-topping No.1 album Cartwheels, finds the Hampshire sisters on scorching form. Observational and opinionated, it documents their coming of age in an era of anxiety and the impact of social media on a generation for which ‘the truth’ has become a tenuous term.
