By this time around even more of a collective than other things, especially because primarily Genders got opted out of carrying out live, the six-piece (Genders and Lindsay plus vocalists Becky Jacobs and Ashley Bates and multi-instrumentalists Martin Smith and Phil Winter season) released Great Arrows another year.
