   About The Loungs


"Make the kind of foot-tapping, heart stonking trippy folk that melds your brain in to a big mush of unbridled, beardy love. Bruised bones are a small, small price to pay for a band as downright sublime as this"

Hi,

I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.

"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny

Lynch Album Cover Medium jpg

"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman


"Great stuff." -Buzz Magazine
Paul Song Lyricist - Better Believe it Babe!
