Following his rapturously received SXSW appearances last week, Liam Finn announces an intimate London show to play new material from his upcoming second album 'FOMO'. The show at Hoxton Bar & Grill on April 21st promises an opportunity to hear new and old material, as well as an unveiling in the UK of the a full band live set-up. Liam Finn's debut album 'I'll be Lightning' was released in 2008 to universal acclaim, and came coupled with appearances on 'Later With Jools Holland' and 'David Letterman'. A relentless two year world tour followed, with Liam sharing stages with the likes of The Black Keys, Wilco and Pearl Jam.
'A proper wild-eyed oddball of a man (in a good way), Finn writes irresistible songs that hum with riotous melodic invention.' The Guardian

Mechanical Bride, AKA 25 year old songwriter and self-taught musician Lauren Doss grew up with her mother working as a professional singer performing with bands all over the world during the 1970s and early 80s. Making music has always been a way to escape for Lauren and the tracks on Living With Ants make up a patchwork of tales and fables and, much like the haunted fairy tales on Part II, the new album is rooted in escapism and fantasy.
