Lunatics Lost- Fronted by Welsh vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Iain Richards with Joanna Khoo on bass/vocals and Mono on drums. With influences from grunge, stoner rock, new wave and punk, the band blend big riffs with melodic hooks giving a powerful platform for lyrics full of bite and edge with clear reference to the social commentary of The Clash and the Manics . “Lunatics Lost reinvents and renews your faith in rock in a way that satisfies all the promise of post – punk to a level other bands can only aspire to. Full of edgy, exciting riffs that will leave you in awe of a band that is set to blow your mind in 2018” – Pure music live… A Joe Strummer Foundation Fundraiser…… Tom Sail – wonderful stuff from the ex Jolanga guy…melodic uber pop country folk n roll with lots of respect paid to the foundation of the music. So rootsy AND original, a neat trick to pull off..and so well too. The Skylights-Retro indie rock with a pleasing jangle to the guitars which recall the Byrds, but there’s a decidedly brit feel to the overall sound, The Kinks could be a reference, also The Creation, strong tunes with insistent hooks.
