Lanterns on the Lake

Lanterns on the Lake, the Mercury Prize-nominated band from North Shields, present their sixth studio album, There's a Bird in My Ribcage, in a London concert at EartH, with Cloth on the bill.

Lanterns on the Lake are a rock and indie band from North Shields, nominated for the Mercury Prize and fronted by singer and songwriter Hazel Wilde. Their sixth studio album, There's a Bird in My Ribcage, responds to a climate of division and growing numbness, exploring how to stay connected to the world and to what matters in an age of distraction.

The album was recorded largely live in a church hall in Northumberland, with additional sessions in North Shields, and moves between melodic passages and expansive arrangements. Its songs range from personal reflection on 'Heavy'to political unease on 'The Swarm', and the closing track is 'Last Days'. The record is ultimately about valuing the present and continuing to care despite the weight of the world.

Cloth are also on the bill. The concert takes place at EartH, a concert and performance venue on Stoke Newington Road in London. EartH operates as a social enterprise that supports new musicians, with music studios in the venue that young artists can use free of charge.
