Lanterns On The Lake
“Musically elegant, emotionally eloquent, and absolutely vital”
In a spiralling world drowning in surface noise, Tyneside’s Lanterns on the Lake have been a steady pulse in the dark. A fiercely creative force, they’ve built a rich body of work with music that soars with cinematic beauty and hits with raw, unflinching honesty, lyrics cutting to the bone. Where the personal meet the political, their songs reveal an unshakable human truth. This is music that grabs your heart and never lets go. For those already hooked, the band’s Mercury Prize nod came as no surprise. This is a band quietly earning devotion the old-school way: through music that connects and grows more vital with every listen. Signed to the prestigious Bella Union records, the band’s most recent album saw Radiohead’s Philip Selway join them on drums. With a rare talent for crafting songs into living breathing landscapes, each album feels like a world unto itself. Lanterns on the Lake echo the timeless spirit of Britains most quietly fearless bands.
