THE LOFT
“Seminally seminal…” – Steve Lamacq
The Loft, original Creation Records legends, set out on a UK tour next March in support of their forthcoming, ‘debut’ album.
The original line up of Pete Astor, Dave Morgan, Bill Prince and Andy Strickland, embark on their first ever UK club tour, 40 years after the classic ‘Up The Hill And Down The Slope’, topped the indie singles chart.
Since their infamous onstage split at the Hammersmith Palais in ‘85, their status as one of the UK’s most influential guitar bands of the 80s continues to grow and to influence a host of younger artists.
“It’s incredibly exciting to not only be setting out on tour again, but now with a brand new set of songs to play alongside some of our, ahem, ‘greatest hits’, says drummer, Dave Morgan.
“The Loft has always been just the same four people and it’s a real thrill to be playing across the UK with the band again. We’re sounding better than ever…”
YES TODAYFormed in 2022, Yes Today is the project of Essex/Devon-based songwriter Amy Glover. The songs, which speak of unease and unbelonging, are nestled somewhere between psych folk and country melancholy, with hints of post-punk experimentalism. The music is conveyed with honest, sometimes fragile vocals that interweave with Amy's delicate guitar wanderings, the graceful meanderings of Claire Keech's clarinet, the sensitive textures of Amy McKenny's violin, and grounded with Roy Thirlwall's assured, yet subtle basslines. Yes Today released their debut album, 'Still', in 2024 - recorded on tape and produced by James Hoare (Penny Arcade/Veronica Falls/Ultimate Painting) in Totnes, Devon.
