Fresh from their triumph at the BBC Folk Awards, where they were named Best Group, Lau will soon be coming to a gig venue near you. Their new tour kicks off on 14th February in Morecambe.
In addition, their new album ’Arc Light’ will be released on 28th March. Recorded in Castle Sound in Midlothian with producer Calum Malcolm, it apparently includes guest appearances by the likes of Stuart Nisbett, Corrina Hewat, Karine Polwart and Inge Thomson.
