Creating Short Fiction

About Me

"The plethora of musical influences grows as the record proceeds... However, the accomplishment lies not in the list of influences drawn from, but rather the sheer skill of Orko’s songwriting. Heartfelt choruses sit happily beside strong instrumental buildings - and when brought together, Orko are unstoppable." - 9/10, Drowned In Sound .
