The Sun recently described The Lazarus Plot as 'one to watch'. It's not hard to see why.
Formed in a South London pub, The Lazarus Plot have managed to create their own unique sound borne from a mesh of truly diverse artists such as Massive Attack, World Party, The Divine Comedy, DJ Shadow and even Duran Duran. Despite this fusion of contrasting influences there is something reassuringly familiar about the band's marriage of brooding, introspective lyrics with soaring, haunting melodies.
Support slots with Sony BMG-signed Norwegian three piece Lorraine and Britpop stalwarts The Bluetones, coupled with headline appearances on the London circuit (Metro, Halfmoon, Dublin Castle to name but a few) have only added to the band's burgeoning reputation. At the same time, festival appearances at Stroud Fringe and the Peavey-sponsored Till The Cows Come Home, have allowed the band to stretch its growing following far beyond its London base; a feat which has been helped further by radio appearances on the BBC across the UK and live sessions on several other leading regional radio stations.
With two critically-acclaimed singles released in 2007 on independent tastemaker label Illuminated Music, it seems the band should make the move into the commercial mainstream sooner rather than later. And not before time as far as this journalist is concerned.
Letting you know that my upcoming album “Underwater Balloons” is now available for PRE SALE.
The album will be officially launched on the 9th of September. By purchasing the album before it’s official launch you will get 2 mp3’s of your choice from my previous albums “Personal “ and “Blue” You can have a listen to some songs from “Underwater Balloons” on my page, on my “PLAYLIST” player.
