Description
Arc Light is the new studio album from Lau - the Triple BBC Best Group Folk Award winners. Features their Beatles cover as a bonus track (Dear Prudence ). Re-released in a digi pack on Reveal Records, now at cheaper price. This generation's most inventive folk band return with highly anticipated new album Arc Light. LAU are a formidable trio of three of the finest & most innovative exponents of modern traditional music in Britain today. A collection of both traditional and self-penned songs which highlight their unique take on folk music. Highly regarded musicians in their own right, the combined talents of Kris Drever, Martin Green and Aidan O'Rourke make for a fantastic and all-conquering trio. Lau employ rising, epic song structures not usually associated with Folk music and more akin to those on the leftfield of rock and jazz.
