A new EP whets the appetite for a new tour
The Lake Poets, the solo vehicle for left-field folk artist Marty Longstaff, has just released a new EP filled with dazzling live recordings from a show at Sage Gateshead at Christmas 2016. It also features the string section of the Young Musicians Programme, with the Sage Gateshead backed initiative a real highlight and spotlighting what the venue does for up-and-coming musicians.
The single Your Face has already racked up well over 7 million Spotify plays, and the five track EP finds the musician in one of his favourite venues making the most of an incredible space. With a tour starting in April to come, and a second album being ever more yearned for, 2018 holds a lot of excitement for The Lake Poets, and fans of the rather beautiful, tender sounds on offer.
