One of the finest & most innovative exponents of modern traditional music in Britain today.
LAU make a welcomed return visit to Lichfield Guildhall on Sunday March 13th. Their now infamous live concerts are a must-see experience with an energy and musicianship which is spellbinding.
Highly regarded musicians in their own right, the combined talents of Kris Drever, Martin Green and Aidan O’Rourke make for a fantastic group.
It is no surprise that they once again won last years BBC Folk Awards.
LAU employ rising, epic song structures not usually associated with Folk music and more akin to those on the leftfield of rock and jazz.
