LUMP performing at Oslo Hackney, London (Alberto Pezzali / Live4ever)
Laura Marling and Mike Lindsay have arranged a London show for their LUMP project.
The pair will be at the London Garage on November 21st after releasing their self-titled debut album last June. It’s a record of ‘undefinable substance and beauty‘ according to Live4ever:
“Rolling Thunder is, to start with, equally unsettling and uncomfortable, but as it builds it becomes more song-like, more soulful, more enchanting. There’s even a hint of Portishead to it. This is LUMP’s outstanding moment, finishing hard after a powerful slow build.”
“The single Curse Of The Contemporary has a noticeable country twang to it, a simpler, more familiar style and structure almost make it seem unusual amongst the more complex and fascinating ideas to be found. What keeps the song interesting is that they’ve even managed to subvert the expected in very unexpected ways.”
“So what starts as one thing never remains that way. What you’re left with is 16 Horsepower meets Joni Mitchell with wonky 80’s Vangelis style production sheen.”
