Featuring timeless favourites including Just, Hey Mister, Henry and Waves of Salt, the album struck a chord with listeners through its honesty and unpolished authenticity.Looking back, the pair admit they had little idea of what lay ahead."We were so young and completely unprepared for the music industry," laughs Karma Swanepoel. "We never really set out thinking this was going to be a career. We were just writing songs we loved and playing them wherever we could."
