On Wednesday this week (10/10) we’ve got the latest Walrus-curated live show at London’s The Finsbury where we are thrilled to be putting on two of our favourite acts of the last year – Lokki and Strange Boy.
Back in January this year we featured ‘I Catch You’, the contemplative and timeless debut single from Lokki, the solo project from Glass Animal’s Drew MacFarlane. Since then, he has wowed us with the delicate and beautiful ‘Breathe a Breath of Me’ and a similarly impressive debut EP ‘Cirrhi’.
At the same time, we’ve watched as Strange Boy have gone from strength to strength over the last year, from the soaring electronica of ‘Annunciation‘ and ‘Corbusier‘ to the frantic and tribal ‘Hot Breath‘.
Tickets are available for free via the Dice.fm app.
Doors open at 19:30.Huge thanks to Chris from Lost in the Manor for making this possible.
Hear Walrus live: Lokki & Strange Boy at The Finsbury on 10/10/2018 and other great new tracks on the new music blog The Blue Walrus.
