Lankum

  • Union Stage 740 Water Street Southwest Washington, DC, 20024 United States (map)

If you have ever been to a Lankum gig, ‘Go Dig My Grave’ perfectly captures how it feels to hear them live. They play together as though they are a single lung, with sounds expanding and collapsing from indistinguishable mouths, bellies, fingers, keys and feet creating not so much a wall but an orb of sound. A starkly beautiful and haunting ball of energy. The unmistakable drone sound running through their work, as you’ll hear on their most well-known tracks, ‘The Wild Rover’ (from The Livelong Day, 2019) and ‘What Will We Do When We Have No Money’ (Between the Earth and Sky, 2017) has the power to draw you away from the world as you give yourself up to its unique, cutting-edge soundscape.
