LITM return to Great Escape in 2017

For the second year running, Lost In The Manor has been asked to curate a stage at the Great Escape Festival in Brighton, the UK’s premier showcase of upcoming talent and buzz-making bands. Following a great day hosting the acts at the Queens Hotel in 2016, we’re moving up to The Hope on Queens Road, the main drag linking Brighton’s station and sea. Taking the stage on Saturday 20 May will be label signees Bokito, CHILDCARE and Cocoa Futures plus guests to be announced. The day kicks off at 12 midday. Fellow LITM band The fin. are also performing at The Alternative Escape. Keep it locked for further announcements.

Lost In The Manor bands pack out launch shows

Two of the bands on our label played supreme London gigs last week to support recent releases. First, CHILDCARE headlined The Waiting Room in Stoke Newington, performing a set that included new single ‘Film Club’ to a sweaty full house. The band were ably supported by Bokito and Sad Palace.

The following Saturday was Cocoa Futures’ turn to roll out EP ‘Blue’ with a rammed show at The Sebright Arms in Hackney, going down a storm with a performance sprinkled with the four tracks from the release. Coby Sey and KYLYPSO had ignited the party vibes before them.

The fin. booked for SXSW 2017

More good news for The fin. as the Kobe/London quartet have sealed a slot at next year’s South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, the planet’s major new music showcase. This follows the band’s recent release of a remix EP, featuring versions by The Field, Ten Fé and All We Are, and launched with a sold out all-nighter in East London. The Lost In The Manor signees were also chosen as one of the key acts to launch Spotify in Japan, and have just featured on two official UK playlists. Access ‘Through The Deep’ below:
