LANCASHIRE RELEASES
STRATA
Preston indie newcomers STRATA make a strong first impression with Mr Procrastinator, pairing raw guitar energy and catchy melodies with lyrics about wasted potential, complacency and putting things off for another day.
Harris Raff
A Burnley-rooted original with enough local identity to earn a place on BBC Lancashire Introducing, Burnin’ is a strong addition to the county’s growing crop of independently released music.
British Birds
Chorley’s British Birds combine jangly psych-pop, DIY production and off-kilter melodic hooks, with Lie Down With Dogs, Stand Up With Fleas offering another taste of their distinctive homemade sound.
Pyramid Eyes
Slowdown sits in Pyramid Eyes’ experimental electronic world of ambient textures, glitchy beats and cinematic atmosphere, somewhere between electronica and post-rock.
