About Me



The Sun recently described The Lazarus Plot as 'one to watch'. It's not hard to see why.

Formed in a South London pub, The Lazarus Plot have managed to create their own unique sound borne from a mesh of truly diverse artists such as Massive Attack, World Party, The Divine Comedy, DJ Shadow and even Duran Duran. Despite this fusion of contrasting influences there is something reassuringly familiar about the band's marriage of brooding, introspective lyrics with soaring, haunting melodies.

Support slots with Sony BMG-signed Norwegian three piece Lorraine and Britpop stalwarts The Bluetones, coupled with headline appearances on the London circuit (Metro, Halfmoon, Dublin Castle to name but a few) have only added to the band's burgeoning reputation. At the same time, festival appearances at Stroud Fringe and the Peavey-sponsored Till The Cows Come Home, have allowed the band to stretch its growing following far beyond its London base; a feat which has been helped further by radio appearances on the BBC across the UK and live sessions on several other leading regional radio stations.

With two critically-acclaimed singles released in 2007 on independent tastemaker label Illuminated Music, it seems the band should make the move into the commercial mainstream sooner rather than later. And not before time as far as this journalist is concerned.

"Heavenly" - Fresh Air FM

"Their material is classy, their approach is remarkably original and they keep on coming up with the goods" - Toxic Pete

"Always The Same is the London quartet's second official release a shyly nimble slice of emotion lashed heartache set to a breathlessly sweeping scale ascending canter like piano motif replete with hush like imploring vocals and sugar dipped with the kind of beguiling quiet splendour of the Dream Academy albeit minus the honey crusted succulently rich string arrangements" - Losing Today

"Something in the Roddy Frame for the 00s sphere of excellence" - Wey FM

"Always the Same is a great track. Europe-wide appealling pop is the basis of the song with an emotive tune and whispery lyrics" - The Mag
