ALASKALASKA share video for ‘Patience’
ALASKALASKA are a London based art-pop 6 piece. Since 2016 they have been busy cultivating a beautiful groove-laden sound, seamlessly blending jazz, disco, funk and R&B into something totally new and unique. Bandleader and vocalist, Lucinda John-Duarte’s ethereal and otherworldly voice twists brooding and introspective lyrics into hypnotic melodies, which play out alongside rich and intricate arrangements – synthetic beats and live drums, shimmering guitars, pulsing bass, with swirling synths and saxophones rounding it all off.
Their brilliant self-titled debut EP is the perfect introduction to their brand of unique off-kilter pop. The four songs – Bitter Winter, Familiar Ways, Patience, This – mark the arrival of a formidable group, reminiscent of Arthur Russell, Talk Talk, Dirty Projectors and Warpaint. They’ve built a cult following and reputation as extraordinary performers through a handful of shows in London and most recently on tour throughout the UK and Europe supporting Alvvays.
