Out May 15 - Lauren Lakis “Deadlights” LP / CD from Riding Easy.
"Indebted to shoegaze and ’90s alt rock, its 10 tracks are filled with ethereal vocals, melodic guitars, and a heavy low end. It’s inspired by groups like Deftones and Hole, powerful bands that explore the emotional bottom but are able to rise from the depths.”
Lauren Lakis adds a swirly, ethereal dimension to her shoegaze sound with her hazy, melodic vocals floating against the high distortion backdrop of her guitar fuzz.

Lauren Lakis is a singer-songwriter and a guitarist who plays in a dreamy shoegaze style that combines her floating, ethereal vocals with a relatively aggressive and fairly distorted fuzzy guitar attack. She started out playing these components in a smoother indie rock type context in her earlier recordings but then moved towards the kind of swirly melodic vocals and ringing guitars that may be reminiscent of classic Cocteau Twins catalog. As she continued to turn up the dials, her sound grew darker, and her vocals, hazier. There are times when she brings goth style post-punk shades into her songs as well (see the deliciously gloomy "Fear of God"). Apart from her strong melodic base, her music also stands out with her instrumental passages, especially on the guitar.
