77:78, the new project from Aaron Fletcher and Tim Parkin (The Bees), have announced details of their debut album ‘Jellies’ for Heavenly Recordings and UK festival appearances.

Set to pick up where The Bees left off, the album was recorded at Studio Hamburg on the Isle Of Wight and travels through sublime west coast harmonies, reminiscent of The Beach Boys, with the playfulness of early Syd Barrett; although crucially, the outcome is something that is 100% Fletcher and Parkin’s.
They’ve released a video for Love Said, about which Aaron from the band said:
