The Voice UK Finalists Release INTO THE ARK Debut Single with Parade Magazine Today

Having now achieved well over 1 million plays across streaming platforms, Welsh duo Into The Ark build upon these foundations with the release of a trio of singles before sharing the Valencia EP on June 22nd. Today, Blackwood Records presents the first track,"No Place Like Home" from The VOICE UK Finalists, Into The Ark via

Parade Magazine.

Recorded earlier this year in Valencia with Dani Castelar (Paolo Nutini/Emeli Sande), Into the Ark released a fan live favorite "No Place Like Home" on April 6. The song is a tribute to the duo's home of Blackwood in The Valleys of South Wales.

Recording the EP at a residential studio in the hills and orange groves above Valencia, was like a dream come true for Dane Lloyd and Taylor Marshall Jones.

"We'd never spent proper time in a studio before, working with one producer,"says Dane."The aim was to keep our sound as raw as possible, and that's what Dani did. A lot of the songs were recorded live, old school, sometimes in one take. We had guests come in to jam, including some Spanish drummers. It was an incredible experience!"

Mastered by Pete Maher (U2/The Killers/Noel Gallagher/Lana Del Rey) and written by Dane and Taylor, the 'Valencia EP' is the perfect start to 2018 before they head back into the studio to finish of their debut album -due for release later this year. The second track 'Caroline' which becomes available on April 27 is a rich soulful track that sours with Taylor's heartfelt vocals and Dane's swooning harmonies. This is followed by a track they wrote together whilst busking in their teens 'Better Than Never At All' on June 15..

The band continues to tour throughout 2018, first supporting their mentor Sir Tom Jones on an extensive 20-date tour of the US in May/June before returning to play the festivals this Summer.
