Lanterns On The Lake Confirm New EP 'The Realist'

It's out on December 11th...

North East group *Lanterns On The Lake* have announced new EP 'The Realist'.

The band's sublime album 'Spook The Herd' won a Mercury nomination, catapulting the highly-regarded act into the limelight.

Set to play a reduced capacity, socially distanced show at The Sage in Gateshead on November 7th, before sharing a brand new EP.

Out on December 11th, 'The Realist' EP is led by the title track, a wonderfully brooding, atmospheric piece from the band.

Hazel Wilde comments...

"'The Realist' is a song about being a dreamer, clinging to a vision and following your heart - even when that path can seem deluded to others. It was one of the songs that didn’t make it onto the album 'Spook The Herd' as it didn’t fit sonically or narratively. It felt like it came from another place. So we began putting together this EP."

"We wanted to sculpt an intimate 'headphones' record. One for the introverts and dreamers, the ones that still find beauty and magic in things. Recording some of the songs over lockdown in our homes helped in creating that world."

Check out the title track below.
