London five-piece Curse Of Lono recently released their debut album ‘Severed’, a
sumptuously cinematic record that combines harmony-laden Americana with driving,
gothic alt-rock. The album follows Curse Of Lono’s critically acclaimed debut EP,
released October 2016, which also formed the soundtrack to ‘Saturday Night’, a short
film of inter-connected music videos directed by Alex Walker. The film recently won
Best Music Video at the LA Independent Film Awards, the London Independent Film
Awards and Feel The Reel International Film Festival in Glasgow and has made the
official selection at the International Music Video Underground in LA and the
Sunlight International Film Festival in Moscow.

roots pioneers Hey Negrita, Curse Of Lono formed in early 2015, though the songs
on ‘Severed’ were written over a 14-year period. They range from the perky, Paul
Simon-ish new single ‘Pick Up The Pieces’ to the more lugubrious ‘He Takes My
Place’, the almost jazzy ‘London Rain’ and the rootsy, rhythmic ‘Send For The
Whisky’. The album belongs as much to the Americana tradition and old faithfuls
such as Little Feat as it does to more modern, playful practitioners of the form such as
Wilco and Beck.
Lyrically, the songs cover themes including infidelity and sexual jealousy, the death
of friends, and Felix’s personal struggle with heroin addiction. “Although ‘Severed’ is
a dark record in places, it is not an addiction record,” says Felix. “It’s about growing
up enough to be able to share a drink with the ghosts of the past without letting them
push you around.”
Curse of Lono will be support act during the upcoming EU tour of Chuck Prophet.
