See Lankum perform A National Disgrace live from Abbey Theatre

Lankum to stream spectacular event live from Abbey Theatre Saturday 15th August.

Dublin nu-trad quartet Lankum will present a particularly special live-stream this Saturday, 15th August 2020. Presented by Foggy Notions, A National Disgrace, will be broadcast from Dublin’s famous Abbey Theatre and is described by the band as:

a gradual descent into a warped, dreamworld of musical performance, theatre, doorways, passages, drones and existential uncertainty…

Featuring unannounced special guests, the hype for the extravaganza is building to fever pitch. Tickets are available from various links depending from where you wish to watch:

– Watch from UK (£12) – click here
The broadcast will be available to tickets holders for 24 hours following the performance.


The Livelong Day

In case it passed you by, Lankum‘s latest record was released in 2019. Traditional folk forged in the fires of Swans and NEU!, for us here at low trees The Livelong Day is one of the best albums released in the past decade. An album deserving of time and adoration, not to mention the Choice Music Prize. Use the player below to hear for yourself.
