Cancelled: La Luz

A message from the band:
'Wish we didn’t have to type this. We are absolutely heartbroken to announce that we have to cancel our entire UK & Ireland tour because of positive covid tests in our band. We're so sorry to share this news with our fans, and we hope we will be able to return to see you soon.'

La Luz has always been a band with a vision. Their discography is a study in balancing both heavenly and haunting sounds for a lush style of rock music that’s all their own. On their self-titled fourth album, La Luz fearlessly launch themselves into a new realm of emotional intimacy with a collection of songs steeped in the mysteries of the natural world and the magic of human chemistry that has found manifestation in the musical ESP between guitarist and songwriter Shana Cleveland, bassist Lena Simon, and keyboardist Alice Sandahl.
