Drawing inspiration from producers Jacknife Lee (Snow Patrol, R.E.M), Jim Eliot (Ellie Goulding) and 'In A Perfect World' producer Steve Harris, Kodaline saw fully-fledged songs flow out of them much quicker than they ever anticipated. As on Kodaline's debut 'In A Perfect World.' Steve wrote the bulk of the lyrics for the album with guitarist Mark, bassist Jason and drummer Vinny pitching in on all the music, In first single "Honest" they have a gamechanger, Featuring a stadium sized chorus of which Coldplay would be proud, the single highlights the ambition on 'Coming Up For Air.' Other highlights from the album include the anthemic "The One." the driving percussion of "Ready." the acoustic and string laden "Better" and the rousing album closer "Love Will Set You Free." In 'Coming Up For Air.' Kodaline have managed to record an album that is not only a sonic step on, but one which at its core retains the ability to connect instantly with an audience, to share the emotions in their songs and to pull the listener in to their world.

Coming up for air is beyond compare
Pure musical genius from start to finish.When you put on a cd you normally expect to miss some tracks but this is the exception,by a mile.Every track is amazing and the variation from one to another exquisite. A lot of thought went into this cd.Kodaline are sheer brilliance ,I used to be heavily into Coldplay I ve seen them 3 times, Last year though I went to see Kodaline in Manchester brilliant just brilliant and great with their audience, too.My best liked track would have to be Honest, I think it's just great.Versatile and vivacious, as an Irish group can be. Caught in the middle sounds reminiscent of Empire of the Sun,a duo from down under but really good.To sum up every track will please you so put it on and relax on your couch or bed and let the music flow .
