‘like the Velvet Underground jamming with Mazzy Star in a Nashville honky tonk after closing time’ Post To Wire
‘a holy-glowing dreamscape of smoke-clouded guitars, loping basslines and tantric drums that channel a history of sound recordings, from delta blues to chiaroscuro surf reveries, haunted pop ballads to modern bloodied valentines’ Will Hermes
Lo Carmen’s shimmering songs transcend time and genre and they are in full mesmerising force on ‘Transatlantic Light,’ recorded with The Great Beyond, featuring Cec Condon on drums (Mess Hall), Ken Gormly on bass (Cruel Sea) and Sam Worrad on guitar (Holy Soul).
