W.H. Lung
+ Special Guests
While W.H. Lung’s name might suggest a nod to the likes of WH Auden and similarly austere literary figures, it actually comes from a Chinese supermarket in their native Manchester. This deliberate blurring of high and low culture is part of the appeal of the enigmatic three-piece (Joseph E on vocals/synths, Tom S on guitar and Tom P on bass), their songs juxtaposing simplicity with free-ranging experimentation. But even more key is their ability to seamlessly meld genres – krautrock, post-punk and synth-pop, most prominently – to create songs that are fresh and exciting yet familiar-sounding and accessible.
Starting off as a studio only three-piece shrouded in mystery, Manchester's W. H. Lung have evolved across two acclaimed full lengths into one of the UK's most exciting live acts & a forward-thinking synth-pop powerhouse. Currently in the studio with Ross Orton (Arctic Monkeys, Working Mens Club, Yard Act) with their third album slated for Autumn 2024, the band set out for their biggest UK headline tour to date, and their first since 2022. In the years since their last full length 'Vanities' the band have been off touring mainland Europe & the United States, with a smattering of UK festivals in the midst. A lucky few have caught them road-testing new songs at occasional sell-out secret shows, but now the chance comes to catch them in all their glory.
