Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys is an art-pop, tender noise band based in Berlin.
The group, fronted by South African-born artist Lucy Kruger, creates music full of atmosphere and intensity. Their latest album, ‘Heaving,’ - a visceral and vivid collection of songs - was released last April by Unique Records (EU) and Metropolis Records (USA).
Over the last three years, the band has released a trilogy of albums - ‘Teen Tapes (for performing your stunts)’ (2022), ‘Transit Tapes (for women who move furniture around) (2021)’, and ‘Sleeping Tapes for Some Girls’ (2019) which they've toured throughout Germany and Europe, performing at the likes of Reeperbahn, Fusion Festival, Maifeld Derby, Wave-Gotik Treffen, South of Silence, Immergut, Left of The Dial, and Synästhesie. Lucy Kruger recently contributed vocals to the latest releases by Swans, The Underground Youth, and The Frank Popp Ensemble.
The band was awarded the Europavox Spotlight Prize in June 2023. Lucy was selected to be part of the Keychange initiative, a global network and movement working towards gender equality in the music industry. Keychange is led by Reeperbahn Festival in Germany, PRS Foundation in the UK, and Musikcentrum Öst in Sweden and funded by Creative Europe.
Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys are currently working on a new record. They will be playing SXSW in Austin and at New Colossus in New York in March 2024. They will also play throughout Europe in 2024, including Grauzone in the Hague, Europavox in Brussels, and MENT in Ljubljana.

Balm have good ideas and dare to use melodies and instruments for them. The drums stumble charmingly in some songs, there is piano, there is 90s guitars - it all sounds a lot, but the remarkable vocals manage to hold everything together in a haunting but light-footed way.
It's like a melancholy stroll, more on a summery field that has been harvested than through a city.
