The Low Suns are a five piece, who blast out soulfully cinematic songs from their hand-made studio in London.
Returning from L.A. heartbroken in the wake of a studio-killing forest fire, childhood friends Ali and James met esoteric singer and folk heartthrob Jack Berkley in ‘The Barley Mow’ pub in London. Jack had put out a single with the ‘Young and Lost Club’ but had since quickly fallen out of acting college, and out of love with both his lady and the folk scene in London.
Influenced by Jeff Buckley, The Flaming Lips, 1940s Gospel and sci-fi soundtracks they started making an ambitious patchwork of orchestral riffs, with lyrics that reek of English romance, sung to IMAX sized melodies from the heart and soul. It is ambitious music. A music made without irony, for both for the bedrooms of now and the stadiums of the future. And this time they’re even making it in a fire-proof studio...
A year later and they’re unleashing themselves on the world like a horny supernova. Brace yourselves!

Arkham Karvers, a young band who have very quickly picked up many plaudits, one of Sheffield's finest.
