Lau are one of the best known acts on the modern folk scene, although their music transcends the genre and often develops (especially live) into areas more akin to a stripped back Godspeed You! Black Emperor or other outfits with an interesting sense of dynamics. Indeed, the launch show for their brand new album Race The Loser at Kings Place in London drew the following enthusiastic response from Robin Denselow at The Guardian: “Lau in full flight were epic and exhilarating. The most exciting and original live performance I have seen this year” (five stars)
