"Constance" LP on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2YilPC1

Earning their stripes in pubs and clubs of the Watford music scene, LAKES have been emboldened with a DIY attitude that was born from frustration of life on the peripheries of a capital city. Taking influence from mid-western emo, math rock and alternative indie, the group's independent attitude has led them to record all their own music, produce their own music videos and with families of their own - organise child-friendly matinee gigs in their hometown. What began as a naming convention for drummer Matthew Shaw's acoustic demos quickly developed into a sextet, bonding over a love of artists like American Football, Minus The Bear and Into It Over It and completed by the addition of Sam Neale on vocals and glockenspiel adding to the bands unique trademark sound.

"Two Sides" EP on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2YDfLPV

Pretty melodic acoustic jams played by a semi-gloomy, but erratically chatty dude. Brightr has played over 600 shows all over the world, amassing a plethora of experiences, from an abandoned train station in Germany, to numerous years at The Fest in Florida and most recently a slot at 2000 Trees Festival. Spreading his own brand of gloomy-emo-pop music infused with a stage presence that can only be described as "group therapy". Enjoy!
