TRACK REVIEW: Lost Lot – Home

Upbeat and merry, Home is a warm-hearted and full-bodied love letter to Northumberland. Native to the North East, Lost Lot’s latest offering sees the alt. country quartet refine their timeless and folky Jason Isbell-inspired sound, whilst simultaneously paying homage to the beloved border county.

The track is a slice of good old’ Northern pride, evident every time vocalist Matt Dunbar exclaims “Oh lord I am home!”, his charmingly familiar Geordie twang dancing over the swelling instrumentals as the song progresses. 

The emerging band, composed of Matt Dunbar, Jamie Mackay, Scott Dolan and Ben Lackenby, released their self-titled EP in October 2023, which was well received by fans and critics alike, and this track will further serve to prove the reasons behind popularity.
