listen: F R O N D S | “Flags”

Much like  The Fresh and Onlys’ Wymond Miles, who’s solo project is a departure from the Only’s brasher style of rock ‘n’ roll, Dylan Tidman-Jones of The Mallard composes breezy, floating tunes as F R O N D S. Listen to “Flags” below,  the last song on their forthcoming record.
