Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys is an art-pop tender-noise band defined by their openness to sonic transformation. Formed in 2015 by frontwoman Lucy Kruger – a South African-born singer-songwriter and guitarist – the project took on its distinctively ephemeral shape after relocating to Berlin in 2018.For the past six years, with a signature grit and grace, Kruger’s voice has traversed walls of ambient noise, deftly weaving whispers and guttural invocations alike through a sonically haunted post-punk terrain. Her sonorous duality lends both softness and ferocity to the defiant sound producing a feeling that is both vulnerable and charged.
The band’s performances are held together by the tight, intuitive interplay between Liú Mottes (guitar), Jean-Louise Parker (viola), Gidon Carmel (drums), and Andreas Bonkowski (bass). Known for their immersive energy and their ability to shift between states of intimacy and abandon, the group’s approach is grounded in the affective physicality of sound – producing live shows that are celebrated for their emotional precision and force. Their desirous and deliberate musicality has drawn comparisons to Sonic Youth, PJ Harvey, and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds.
In 2026, the band will release and tour their seventh studio album, Pale Bloom – a culmination of years of writing, recording, and performing. The result is a glistening and emotive sonic emulsion that animates itself in the body of the listener, like an awakened desire stretching itself into being.

DAS FREIE ENERGIE BAND
Somewhere between a dream and an interference signal. With theremin tendrils and pop frequencies filtered through soft layers glowing with existential light, this project defies gravity and genre alike. The German lyrics circle water, trees, light – elemental things, fleeting yet deep. Layers unfold like soft static, melancholy with warmth, experimental without excess. A live appearance feels less like a gig, more like an invitation to drift – elsewhere, inward, otherwards.
For those open to subtle transmissions: tune in.
