Motto is the third album by Leeds trio Sky Larkin on Wichita Recordings. Recorded with long-term collaborator, producer John Goodmanson (Girls, Sleater Kinney, Los Campesinos!) in Seattle, Motto showcases Sky Larkin’s unshakable ability to conjure immediately satisfying, vibrant indie rock.

“Sky Larkin are demanding your attention. Deny them at your own risk.” - 4/5, This Is Fake DIY "Motto is replete with razor-sharp songwriting and a thrilling immediacy" - 8/10, Loud & Quiet "This is a proud record that is best played loud, and often." - 8/10, Drowned in Sound "Where Sky Larkin were once winsome and breezy, ‘Motto’ pounds ahead with heart-punching defiance and desperation to be heard. Listen up." - 8/10, NME
